Subject: [PATCH] md: don't check MD_SB_CHANGE_CLEAN in md_allow_write
Git-commit: b90f6ff080c52e2f05364210733df120e3c4e597
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
References: bsc#1093023
Only MD_SB_CHANGE_PENDING should be used to wait for transition from
clean to dirty. Checking also MD_SB_CHANGE_CLEAN is unnecessary and can
race with e.g. md_do_sync(). This sporadically causes a hang when
changing consistency policy during resync:
Info: task mdadm:6183 blocked for more than 30 seconds.
Not tainted 4.14.0-rc3+ #391
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
