[patch v2 00/11]md: fix raid5 write hole

[Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com>]

Hi Neil,

This is the updated patch for the raid5 write hole issue. I thought I addressed
most of issues from you and Christoph. Please let me know if anything is
missed. Something not done yet:

- Still use NOFAIL allocation. I don't think 2-element mempool is ok. An
  io_unit will have several bio (> 2), 2 element bioset isn't ok. We can
dispatch all bio of the io_unit if bio allocation fails, but this will increase
complexity. I'd prefer using NOFAIL allocation now for simplicity and fix it
later if necessary
- Add flag for reshape handling in disk format, but don't support it yet

Thanks,
Shaohua
