mdcheck_continue is triggered by mdcheck_start timer. It's used to continue check action if the raid is too big and mdcheck_start service can't finish check action. If mdcheck start can finish check action, it doesn't need to mdcheck continue service anymore. So stop it when mdcheck start service can finish check action.
