Subject[patch 15/24] md/raid5: suspend shouldnt affect read requests.
2.6.30-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

commit a5c308d4d1659b1f4833b863394e3e24cdbdfc6e upstream.

md allows write to regions on an array to be suspended temporarily.
This allows user-space to participate is aspects of reshape.
In particular, data can be copied with not risk of a race.
We should not be blocking read requests though, so don't.
