md/raid5: per hash value and exclusive wait_for_stripe

I noticed heavy spin lock contention at get_active_stripe() with fsmark
multiple thread write workloads.

Here is how this hot contention comes from. We have limited stripes, and
it's a multiple thread write workload. Hence, those stripes will be taken
soon, which puts later processes to sleep for waiting free stripes. When
enough stripes(>= 1/4 total stripes) are released, all process are woken,
trying to get the lock. But there is one only being able to get this lock
for each hash lock, making other processes spinning out there for acquiring
the lock.

Thus, it's effectiveless to wakeup all processes and let them battle for
a lock that permits one to access only each time. Instead, we could make
it be a exclusive wake up: wake up one process only. That avoids the heavy
spin lock contention naturally.

To do the exclusive wake up, we've to split wait_for_stripe into multiple
wait queues, to make it per hash value, just like the hash lock.

Here are some test results I have got with this patch applied(all test run
3 times):

Where,

     1x: where 'x' means iterations or loop, corresponding to the 'L' option of fsmark

     1t, 64t: where 't' means thread

     4M: means the single file size, corresponding to the '-s' option of fsmark
     40G, 30G, 120G: means the total test size

     4BRD_12G: BRD is the ramdisk, where '4' means 4 ramdisk, and where '12G' means
               the size of one ramdisk. So, it would be 48G in total. And we made a
               raid on those ramdisk

As you can see, though there are no much performance gain for hard disk
workload, the system time is dropped heavily, up to 97%. And as expected,
the performance increased a lot, up to 260%, for fast device(ram disk).

v2: use bits instead of array to note down wait queue need to wake up.
