3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: majianpeng <majianp...@gmail.com> commit 1850753d2e6d9ca7856581ca5d3cf09521e6a5d7 upstream. In ops_run_io(), the call to md_wait_for_blocked_rdev will decrement nr_pending so we lose the reference we hold on the rdev. So atomic_inc it first to maintain the reference. This bug was introduced by commit 73e92e51b7969ef5477d md/raid5. Don't write to known bad block on doubtful devices. which appeared in 3.0, so patch is suitable for stable kernels since then.
