Patch fixes kmemleak on md_stop() path used likely only by dm-raid

what did you mean 'bitmap freeing is not shared' ? The patch doesn't handle
bitmap either.


It only means there is some code to teardown md device which is not shared
between 'md'  and  'dm' wrapper - thus whenever mddev_put() is updated
in some way (adding freeing another object)  same code should be
duplicated into  md_stop()  which is used only by 'dm' (from my
understanding of comment in the source).

IMHO this is not ideal - the code for freeing resources should be sharing more code lines...

But as of now - patch works and does exactly what is needed...

Also set NULL to bio_set and sync_set pointers just like mddev_put is
doing.
