3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: NeilBrown <ne...@suse.de>

commit cc13b1d1500656a20e41960668f3392dda9fa6e2 upstream.

wait_barrier() includes a counter, so we must call it precisely once
(unless balanced by allow_barrier()) for each request submitted.

Since
commit 20d0189b1012a37d2533a87fb451f7852f2418d1
    block: Introduce new bio_split()
in 3.14-rc1, we don't call it for the extra requests generated when
we need to split a bio.

When this happens the counter goes negative, any resync/recovery will
never start, and  "mdadm --stop" will hang.
