    md: reduce the number of synchronize_rcu() calls when multiple devices fail. · d787be40
    NeilBrown 提交于
    Every time a device is removed with ->hot_remove_disk() a synchronize_rcu() call is made
    which can delay several milliseconds in some case.
    If lots of devices fail at once - as could happen with a large RAID10 where one set
    of devices are removed all at once - these delays can add up to be very inconcenient.
    
    As failure is not reversible we can check for that first, setting a
    separate flag if it is found, and then all synchronize_rcu() once for
    all the flagged devices.  Then ->hot_remove_disk() function can skip the
    synchronize_rcu() step if the flag is set.
