6.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Yu Kuai yukuai3@huawei.com
commit 86ad4cda79e0dade87d4bb0d32e1fe541d4a63e8 upstream.
Because flush sync_work may trigger mddev_suspend() if there are spares, and this should never be done in IO path because mddev_suspend() is used to wait for IO.
This problem is found by code review.
