I think this would read better written as:

	init_async_submit(&submit, ASYNC_TX_FENCE|ASYNC_TX_XOR_ZERO_DST, tx,
			  NULL, sh, srcs + sh->disks + 2);

Perhaps this would be better as ...

 static struct page **to_addr_page(struct raid5_percpu *percpu, int i)
 {
-	void *addr;
-
-	addr = flex_array_get(percpu->scribble, i);
-	return addr;
+	return percpu->scribble + i * percpu->scribble_obj_size;
 }

 static addr_conv_t *to_addr_conv(struct stripe_head *sh,
 				 struct raid5_percpu *percpu, int i)
 {
-	void *addr;
-
-	addr = flex_array_get(percpu->scribble, i);
-	return addr + sizeof(struct page *) * (sh->disks + 2);
+	return to_addr_page(percpu, i) + sh->disks + 2;
 }


The rest looks good.
