[PATCH v2 4/8] md: defer the io_opt update out of the sync thread

[Jack Wang <jinpu.wang@ionos.com>]

From: Jack Wang <jinpu.wang@cloud.ionos.com>

mddev_update_io_opt() runs from end_reshape() in the sync thread, and
md_reap_sync_thread() waits for that thread with reconfig_mutex held.
Taking q->limits_lock there hangs a finishing reshape whenever the
lock's holder waits for I/O that only md_check_recovery() can let
complete, and no ordering avoids it: the sync thread is what lets that
I/O finish.

Hand the update to a work item, which holds neither reconfig_mutex nor
the suspend and so takes q->limits_lock in the order the rest of md
uses, before suspending.  __md_stop() flushes it, as it suspends the
array.

Also give the function a queue_limits argument, so a caller that already
owns an update has it changed in place; the users of that path follow.
