Commit 63c32ed4 ("dm raid: add raid4/5/6 journaling support") added journal support to close the raid4/5/6 "write hole" -- in terms of writethrough caching. Introduce a "journal_mode" feature and use the new r5c_journal_mode_set() API to add support for switching the journal device's cache mode between write-through (the current default) and write-back. NOTE: If the journal device is not layered on resilent storage and it fails, write-through mode will cause the "write hole" to reoccur. But if the journal fails while in write-back mode it will cause data loss for any dirty cache entries unless resilent storage is used for the journal.
