If a non-page-aligned write is destined for a device which is missing/faulty, we can deadlock. As the target device is missing, a read-modify-write cycle is not possible. As the write is not for a full-page, a recontruct-write cycle is not possible. This should be handled by logic in fetch_block() which notices there is a non-R5_OVERWRITE write to a missing device, and so loads all blocks. However since commit 67f45548, that code requires STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE before it will active, and those circumstances never set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE. So: in handle_stripe_dirtying, if neither rmw or rcw was possible, set STRIPE_DELAYED, which will cause STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE be set after a suitable delay.
