[PATCH 4 of 8] MD: move thread wakeups into resume

[PATCH 4 of 8] MD: move thread wakeups into resume

am 08.06.2011 00:49:36 von Jonathan Brassow

Move personality and sync/recovery thread starting outside md_run.

Moving the wakeup's of the personality and sync/recovery threads out of
md_run and into do_md_run and mddev_resume solves two issues:
1) It allows bitmap_load to be called before the sync_thread is run and
2) when MD personalities are used by device-mapper (dm-raid.c), the start-up
of the array is better alligned with device-mapper primatives
(CTR/resume/suspend/DTR). I/O - in this case, recovery operations - should
not happen until after a resume has taken place.
