[PATCH] md/linear: rcu_dereference outside read-lock section

[Denis Efremov <yefremov.denis@gmail.com>]

According to the comment in linear_stop function
rcu_dereference in linear_start and linear_stop functions
occurs under reconfig_mutex. The patch represents this
agreement in code and prevents lockdep complaint.
