NeilBrown 06d91a5fe0 [PATCH] md: improve locking on 'safemode' and move superblock writes 
When md marks the superblock dirty before a write, it calls
generic_make_request (to write the superblock) from within
generic_make_request (to write the first dirty block), which could cause
problems later.

With this patch, the superblock write is always done by the helper thread, and
write request are delayed until that write completes.

Also, the locking around marking the array dirty and writing the superblock is
improved to avoid possible races.
