This reverts commit 5e2cf333b7bd5d3e62595a44d598a254c697cd74.

That commit introduced the following race and can cause system hung.

 md_write_start:                                                                        raid5d:

 if (mddev->in_sync || mddev->sync_checkers) {
     spin_lock(&mddev->lock);
     if (mddev->in_sync) {
         mddev->in_sync = 0;
         set_bit(MD_SB_CHANGE_CLEAN, &mddev->sb_flags);

 wait_event(mddev->sb_wait,    >>>>>>>>>> hung
    !test_bit(MD_SB_CHANGE_PENDING, &mddev->sb_flags) ||
    mddev->suspended);

The issue that reverted commit is fixing is fixed by last patch in a new way.
