Subject: [PULLREQUEST] md bugfix for 3.1

Hi Linus,
please pull this one patch which fixes a race in md thread wakeup at the
same time as shutdown. This is also a case where it isn't a race but a
definite "will try to wake up a non-existent thread" when trying to start
RAID10 that doesn't have enough working disks.
This is tagged for -stable.
Thanks,
NeilBrown
