      md: define mddev flags, recovery flags and r1bio state bits using enums · be306c29

      This is less error prone than using individual #defines.

      md/raid1: fix: IO can block resync indefinitely · f2c771a6
      NeilBrown authored
      While performing a resync/recovery, raid1 divides the
      array space into three regions:
       - before the resync
       - at or shortly after the resync point
       - much further ahead of the resync point.
      
      Write requests to the first or third do not need to wait.  Write
      requests to the middle region do need to wait if resync requests are
      pending.
      
      If there are any active write requests in the middle region, resync
      will wait for them.
      
      Due to an accounting error, there is a small range of addresses,
      between conf->next_resync and conf->start_next_window, where write
      requests will *not* be blocked, but *will* be counted in the middle
      region.  This can effectively block resync indefinitely if filesystem
      writes happen repeatedly to this region.
      
      As ->next_window_requests is incremented when the sector is after
        conf->start_next_window + NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE
      the same boundary should be used for determining when write requests
      should wait.

      Bisect points to commit d2ec3f77 ("pty: make ptmx file ops read-only
      after init"). Fix by defining __ro_after_init for the openrisc
      architecture, similar to parisc.
