I don't like this BUG_ON() at all, why are you crashing the system
here instead of just doing a simple WARN_ONCE() instead?  Is there
anything the user can do to get into this situation on their own, or
does it really signify a logic error in the code?  If so, why are you
killing the system?
I'm not sure why to use the BUG_ON() here. I just noticed that
'conf->barrier' is read without holding 'resync_lock', and BUG_ON() can
be triggered false positive.

Thanks,
Kuai
