Hi everyone,

I haven't been able to run raw over raid5 since 2.5.30 or so, but every
time I'm about to report it, a new kernel comes out and the problem
changes completely :-( Now I'm finally going to start getting out the info
it the hopes someone can fix it.  The oops was triggered by attempting to 
read from /dev/raw/raw1 (bound to /dev/md0) using dd.  System info 
follows oops:

------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at drivers/block/ll_rw_blk.c:1967!
invalid operand: 0000
 
You are not alone in reporting this BUG...

I blame the Scsi/bio  layer.
Jens Axboe blames raid5.
:-)
Just for the record, Jens was right. :-)
Here is the patch which will be winging it's way to Linus shortly.

Fix bug in raid5

When analysing a stripe in handle_stripe we set bits
 R5_Wantread or R5_Wantwrite
to indicate if a read or write is needed.  We don't actually schedule the
IO immediately as this is done under a spinlock (sh->lock) and 
generic_make_request can block.  Instead we check these bits after
the lock has been lifted and then schedule the IO.

But once the lock has been lifted we aren't safe against multiple
access, and it is possible that the IO will be scheduled never, or twice.

So, we use test_and_clear to check and potentially schedule the IO.

This wasn't a problem in 2.4 because the equivalent information was
stored on the stack instead of in the stripe.

We also make sure bi_io_vec[0] has correct values as a previous
call to generic_make_request may have changed them.
