[PATCH 004 of 5] md: Improve detection of lack of barrier support in raid1

From: NeilBrown <hidden>
Date: 2006-04-28 02:52:13
Also in: lkml

Move the test for 'do barrier work' down a bit so that if the first
write to a raid1 is a BIO_RW_BARRIER write, the checking done by
superblock writes will cause the right thing to happen.
