Subject: md: MD_CLOSING needs to be cleared after called md_set_readonly or do_md_stop

From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com>

commit 065e519e71b2c1f41936cce75b46b5ab34adb588 upstream.

if called md_set_readonly and set MD_CLOSING bit, the mddev cannot
be opened any more due to the MD_CLOING bit wasn't cleared. Thus it
needs to be cleared in md_ioctl after any call to md_set_readonly()
or do_md_stop().
