Merge tag 'md/3.20' of git://neil.brown.name/md

Pull md updates from Neil Brown:

 - assorted locking changes so that access to /proc/mdstat
   and much of /sys/block/mdXX/md/* is protected by a spinlock
   rather than a mutex and will never block indefinitely.

 - Make an 'if' condition in RAID5 - which has been implicated
   in recent bugs - more readable.

 - misc minor fixes
