From: Li Nan <linan122@xxxxxxxxxx> When we remove a disk which has replacement, first set rdev to NULL and then set replacement to rdev, finally set replacement to NULL (see raid10_remove_disk()). If io is submitted during the same time, it might read both rdev and replacement as NULL, and io will not be submitted. rdev -> NULL read rdev replacement -> NULL read replacement Fix it by reading replacement first and rdev later, meanwhile, use smp_mb() to prevent memory reordering. Fixes: 475b0321a4df ("md/raid10: writes should get directed to replacement as well as original.")
