Subject: md: Put the right device in md_seq_next
From: Mariusz Tkaczyk <mariusz.tkaczyk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit c8870379a21fbd9ad14ca36204ccfbe9d25def43 upstream.
If there are multiple arrays in system and one mddevice is marked
with MD_DELETED and md_seq_next() is called in the middle of removal
then it _get()s proper device but it may _put() deleted one. As a result,
active counter may never be zeroed for mddevice and it cannot
be removed.
Put the device which has been _get with previous md_seq_next() call.
