From 1c4588e9c19cae6209a28c9da2f16a18a610b935 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Tue, 26 Oct 2010 17:41:22 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] md/raid1: perform mem allocation before disabling writes during resync. Though this mem alloc is GFP_NOIO an so will not deadlock, it seems better to do the allocation before 'raise_barrier' which stops any IO requests while the resync proceeds. raid10 always uses this order, so it is at least consistent to do the same in raid1.
