Logan Gunthorpe June 2, 2022, 6:18 p.m. UTC 
The raid5-cache code relies on there being no IO in flight when
log_exit() is called. There are two places where this is not
guaranteed so add mddev_suspend() and mddev_resume() calls to these
sites.

The site in raid5_remove_disk() has a comment saying that it is
called in raid5d and thus cannot wait for pending writes; however that
does not appear to be correct anymore (if it ever was) as
raid5_remove_disk() is called from hot_remove_disk() which only
appears to be called in the md_ioctl(). Thus, the comment is removed,
as well as the racy check and replaced with calls to suspend/resume.

The site in raid5_change_consistency_policy() is in the error path,
and another similar call site already has suspend/resume calls just
below it; so it should be equally safe to make that change here.
