    md: fix calculation of stacking limits on level change. · 02e5f5c0
    NeilBrown authored
    The various ->run routines of md personalities assume that the 'queue'
    has been initialised by the blk_set_stacking_limits() call in
    md_alloc().
    
    However when the level is changed (by level_store()) the ->run routine
    for the new level is called for an array which has already had the
    stacking limits modified.  This can result in incorrect final
    settings.
    
    So call blk_set_stacking_limits() before ->run in level_store().
    
    A specific consequence of this bug is that it causes
    discard_granularity to be set incorrectly when reshaping a RAID4 to a
    RAID0.
    
    This is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.3 in which
    blk_set_stacking_limits() was introduced.
