MD code uses perpcu-refcount internal to check if this percpu-refcount
variable is initialized, this way is a hack.

Add percpu_ref_is_initialized for MD so that the hack can be avoided.

I'd much rather use a flag in the containing mddev structure then
exposing this new "API".  That mddev code is pretty gross to be honest,
we should just initialize the percpu_ref once instea of such a hack.
