4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Tomasz Majchrzak <tomasz.majchrzak@xxxxxxxxx> commit 9b622e2bbcf049c82e2550d35fb54ac205965f50 upstream. md pending write counter must be incremented after bio is split, otherwise it gets decremented too many times in end bio callback and becomes negative.
