    md/raid1: avoid reusing a resync bio after error handling. · 0c9d5b12
    NeilBrown authored
    fix_sync_read_error() modifies a bio on a newly faulty
    device by setting bi_end_io to end_sync_write.
    This ensure that put_buf() will still call rdev_dec_pending()
    as required, but makes sure that subsequent code in
    fix_sync_read_error() doesn't try to read from the device.
    
    Unfortunately this interacts badly with sync_request_write()
    which assumes that any bio with bi_end_io set to non-NULL
    other than end_sync_read is safe to write to.
    
    As the device is now faulty it doesn't make sense to write.
    As the bio was recently used for a read, it is "dirty"
    and not suitable for immediate submission.
    In particular, ->bi_next might be non-NULL, which will cause
    generic_make_request() to complain.
    
    Break this interaction by refusing to write to devices
    which are marked as Faulty.
