Patch name: md-move-thread-wakeups-into-resume.patch 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.
