Thansk, I'll drop this one. Other two patches are still safe for md-cluster,
right? I really hope to have consistent locking for .quiesce. For the
process_recvd_msg, I'm wondering what's protecting the datas? for example,
md-cluster uses md_find_rdev_nr_rcu, which access the disks list without
locking. Is there a race? Does it work if we move the mddev lock to
process_recvd_msg?

Thanks,
Shaohua
