When a raid device is reshaped, in-flight bio may reference outdated
r1conf::raid_disks and r1bio::poolinfo. This can trigger a bug in
three possible paths:

1. In function "raid1d". If a bio fails to submit, it will be resent to
raid1d for retrying the submission, which increases r1conf::nr_queued.
If the reshape happens, the in-flight bio cannot be freed normally as
the old mempool has been destroyed.
2. In raid1_write_request. If one raw device is blocked, the kernel will
allow the barrier and wait for the raw device became ready, this makes
the raid reshape possible. Then, the local variable "disks" before the
label "retry_write" is outdated. Additionally, the kernel cannot reuse the
old r1bio.
3. In raid_end_bio_io. The kernel must free the r1bio first and then
allow the barrier.

By freezing the queue, we can ensure that there are no in-flight bios
during reshape. This prevents bio from referencing the outdated
r1conf::raid_disks or r1bio::poolinfo.

I didn't look into the details of the problem you described, but even if
the problem exist, freeze queue can't help at all, blk_mq_freeze_queue()
for bio-based device can't guarantee that threre are no in-flight bios.

Thanks,

Use this bash script, it's easy to trigger the bug
1. Firstly, start fio to make requests on raid device
2. Set one of the raw devices' state into "blocked"
3. Reshape the raid device and "-blocked" the raw device

```
parted -s /dev/sda -- mklabel gpt
parted /dev/sda -- mkpart primary 0G 1G
parted -s /dev/sdc -- mklabel gpt
parted /dev/sdc -- mkpart primary 0G 1G

yes | mdadm --create /dev/md10 --level=mirror \
    --force --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdc1
mdadm --wait /dev/md10

nohup fio fio.job &

device_num=2
for ((i = 0; i <= 100000; i = i + 1)); do
    sleep 1
    echo "blocked" >/sys/devices/virtual/block/md10/md/dev-sda1/state
    if [[ $((i % 2)) -eq 0 ]]; then
        device_num=2
    else
        device_num=1800
    fi
    mdadm --grow --force --raid-devices=$device_num /dev/md10
    sleep 1
    echo "-blocked" >/sys/devices/virtual/block/md10/md/dev-sda1/state
done
```

The configuration of fio, file fio.job
```
[global]
ioengine=libaio
bs=4k
numjobs=1
iodepth=128
direct=1
rate=1M,1M

[md10]
time_based
runtime=-1
rw=randwrite
filename=/dev/md10
```

kernel crashed when trying to free r1bio:

This looks like freeze_array() doen't work as expected.

After a quick look, I think the problem is that before waiting for
blocked rdev in raid1_write_request(), allow_barrier() is called hence
freeze_array() won't wait for this r1_bio, and if old bio pool is freed
by raid1_reshape(), this problem is triggered.

I think the right fix might be freing the old r1_bio and allocate a new
r1_bio in this case.

As far I know, when a request is allocated,
request_queue::q_usage_counter is increased. When the io finished, the
request_queue::q_usage_counter is decreased, use nvme driver as an
example:

nvme_complete_batch()
    blk_mq_end_request_batch()
        blk_mq_flush_tag_batch()
            percpu_ref_put_many(&q->q_usage_counter, nr_tags);


So, when blk_mq_freeze_queue() is returned successfully, every in-flight
io has returned from hardware, also new requests are blocked.

This only works for rq-based device, not bio-based device.

Kuai
