3.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx> commit 34e97f170149bfa14979581c4c748bc9b4b79d5b upstream. Both normal IO and resync IO can be retried with reschedule_retry() and so be counted into ->nr_queued, but only normal IO gets counted in ->nr_pending. Before the recent improvement to RAID1 resync there could only possibly have been one or the other on the queue. When handling a read failure it could only be normal IO. So when handle_read_error() called freeze_array() the fact that freeze_array only compares ->nr_queued against ->nr_pending was safe. But now that these two types can interleave, we can have both normal and resync IO requests queued, so we need to count them both in nr_pending. This error can lead to freeze_array() hanging if there is a read error, so it is suitable for -stable.
