> I noticed kmemleak report memory leak when run create/stop
> md in a loop, backtrace:
> [<000000001ca975e7>] mempool_create_node+0x86/0xd0
> [<0000000095576bcd>] md_run+0x1057/0x1410 [md_mod]
> [<000000007b45c5fc>] do_md_run+0x15/0x130 [md_mod]
> [<000000001ede9ec0>] md_ioctl+0x1f49/0x25d0 [md_mod]
> [<000000004142cacf>] blkdev_ioctl+0x680/0xd00

> The root cause is we alloc mddev->flush_pool and
> mddev->flush_bio_pool in md_run, but from do_md_stop
> will not call into md_stop but __md_stop, move the
> mempool_destroy to __md_stop fixes the problem for me.
