md/raid5: be more selective about distributing flags across batch. When a batch of stripes is broken up, we keep some of the flags that were per-stripe, and copy other flags from the head to all others. This only happens while a stripe is being handled, so many of the flags are irrelevant. The "SYNC_FLAGS" (which I've renamed to make it clear there are several) and STRIPE_DEGRADED are set per-stripe and so need to be preserved. STRIPE_INSYNC is the only flag that is set on the head that needs to be propagated to all others. For safety, add a WARN_ON if others are set, except: STRIPE_HANDLE - this is safe and per-stripe and we are going to set in several cases anyway STRIPE_INSYNC STRIPE_IO_STARTED - this is just a hint and doesn't hurt. STRIPE_ON_PLUG_LIST STRIPE_ON_RELEASE_LIST - It is a point pointless for a batched stripe to be on one of these lists, but it can happen as can be safely ignored.
