This progression can lead to un-needed delay in retrying

Added a 'reschedule_retry' call possibility at the end of

scheduling makes it seem that way, then we can miss rescheduling
the request and the resync could hang.
md: avoid crash when stopping md array races with closing other open fds.
md will refuse to stop an array if any other fd (or mounted fs) is
using it.
When any fs is unmounted of when the last open fd is closed all
pending IO will be flushed (e.g. sync_blockdev call in __blkdev_put)
so there will be no pending IO to worry about when the array is
stopped.
However in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to stop the array one
must first get and open fd on the block device.
If some fd is being used to write to the block device and it is closed
after mdadm open the block device, but before mdadm issues the
STOP_ARRAY ioctl, then there will be no last-close on the md device so
__blkdev_put will not call sync_blockdev.
If this happens, then IO can still be in-flight while md tears down
the array and bad things can happen (use-after-free and subsequent
havoc).
So in the case where do_md_stop is being called from an open file
descriptor, call sync_block after taking the mutex to ensure there
will be no new openers.
This is needed when setting a read-write device to read-only too.
introduced a 'new_data_offset' attribute which should normally
be the same as 'data_offset', but can be explicitly set to a different
value to allow a reshape operation to move the data.
Unfortunately when the 'data_offset' is explicitly set through
sysfs, the new_data_offset is not also set, so the two would become
out-of-sync incorrectly.
One result of this is that trying to set the 'size' after the
'data_offset' would fail because it is not permitted to set the size
when the 'data_offset' and 'new_data_offset' are different - as that
can be confusing.
Consequently when mdadm tried to do this while assembling an IMSM
array it would fail.
This bug was introduced in 3.5-rc1.

Make wait_for_device_probe() also do scsi_complete_async_scans()
Commit a7a20d103994 ("sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain")
make the SCSI device probing run device discovery in it's own async
domain.
However, as a result, the partition detection was no longer synchronized
by async_synchronize_full() (which, despite the name, only synchronizes
the global async space, not all of them). Which in turn meant that
"wait_for_device_probe()" would not wait for the SCSI partitions to be
parsed.
And "wait_for_device_probe()" was what the boot time init code relied on
for mounting the root filesystem.
Now, most people never noticed this, because not only is it
timing-dependent, but modern distributions all use initrd. So the root
filesystem isn't actually on a disk at all. And then before they
actually mount the final disk filesystem, they will have loaded the
scsi-wait-scan module, which not only does the expected
wait_for_device_probe(), but also does scsi_complete_async_scans().
[ Side note: scsi_complete_async_scans() had also been partially broken,
but that was fixed in commit 43a8d39d0137 ("fix async probe
regression"), so that same commit a7a20d103994 had actually broken
setups even if you used scsi-wait-scan explicitly ]
Solve this problem by just moving the scsi_complete_async_scans() call
into wait_for_device_probe(). Everybody who wants to wait for device
probing to finish really wants the SCSI probing to complete, so there's
no reason not to do this.
So now "wait_for_device_probe()" really does what the name implies, and
properly waits for device probing to finish. This also removes the now
unnecessary extra calls to scsi_complete_async_scans().
