David Jeffery ebf2d9a782 md/raid5: release batch_last before waiting for another stripe_head
commit 2fd7b0f6d5 upstream.

When raid5_get_active_stripe is called with a ctx containing a stripe_head in
its batch_last pointer, it can cause a deadlock if the task sleeps waiting on
another stripe_head to become available. The stripe_head held by batch_last
can be blocking the advancement of other stripe_heads, leading to no
stripe_heads being released so raid5_get_active_stripe waits forever.

Like with the quiesce state handling earlier in the function, batch_last
needs to be released by raid5_get_active_stripe before it waits for another
stripe_head.

Fixes: 3312e6c887 ("md/raid5: Keep a reference to last stripe_head for batch")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
