      sparc32: enable different preemptions models · b2a1fa30
      Sam Ravnborg authored 
      While chasing following warning from kconfig I noticed that the
kconfig preemption model symbols were all dependent on sparc64.

warning: (PREEMPT && DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP) selects PREEMPT_COUNT which has unmet direct dependencies (SPARC64)

>From arch/sparc/Kconfig:

        if SPARC64
        source "kernel/Kconfig.preempt"
        endif

But looking a bit closer I see nothing obvious why
sparc32 should not support the various preemption models.
Drop the "if SPARC64" conditional to enable selection of
preemption model on sparc32 too.

Build-tested - but not run-time tested all three models.

      md/bitmap: It is OK to clear bits during recovery. · 961902c0
      NeilBrown authored 
      commit d0a4bb49 introduced a
regression which is annoying but fairly harmless.

When writing to an array that is undergoing recovery (a spare
in being integrated into the array), writing to the array will
set bits in the bitmap, but they will not be cleared when the
write completes.

For bits covering areas that have not been recovered yet this is not a
problem as the recovery will clear the bits.  However bits set in
already-recovered region will stay set and never be cleared.
This doesn't risk data integrity.  The only negatives are:
 - next time there is a crash, more resyncing than necessary will
   be done.
 - the bitmap doesn't look clean, which is confusing.

While an array is recovering we don't want to update the
'events_cleared' setting in the bitmap but we do still want to clear
bits that have very recently been set - providing they were written to
the recovering device.

So split those two needs - which previously both depended on 'success'
and always clear the bit of the write went to all devices.

      Before performing a recovery we try to remove any spares that
might not be working, then add any that might have become relevant.

Currently we abort on the first spare that cannot be added.
This is a false optimisation.
It is conceivable that - depending on rules in the personality - a
subsequent spare might be accepted.
Also the loop does other things like count the available spares and
reset the 'recovery_offset' value.

If we abort early these might not happen properly.

So remove the early abort.

In particular if you have an array what is undergoing recovery and
which has extra spares, then the recovery may not restart after as
reboot as the could of 'spares' might end up as zero.
