md: handle_stripe5 - add request/completion logic for async write ops
After handle_stripe5 decides whether it wants to perform a
read-modify-write, or a reconstruct write it calls
handle_write_operations5. A read-modify-write operation will perform an
xor subtraction of the blocks marked with the R5_Wantprexor flag, copy the
new data into the stripe (biodrain) and perform a postxor operation across
all up-to-date blocks to generate the new parity. A reconstruct write is run
when all blocks are already up-to-date in the cache so all that is needed
is a biodrain and postxor.
On the completion path STRIPE_OP_PREXOR will be set if the operation was a
read-modify-write. The STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN flag is used in the completion
path to differentiate write-initiated postxor operations versus
expansion-initiated postxor operations. Completion of a write triggers i/o
to the drives.
Changelog:
* make the 'rcw' parameter to handle_write_operations5 a simple flag, Neil Brown
* remove test_and_set/test_and_clear BUG_ONs, Neil Brown
