Nate Dailey d92105f93a raid1: prevent freeze_array/wait_all_barriers deadlock
commit f6eca2d43e upstream.

If freeze_array is attempted in the middle of close_sync/
wait_all_barriers, deadlock can occur.

freeze_array will wait for nr_pending and nr_queued to line up.
wait_all_barriers increments nr_pending for each barrier bucket, one
at a time, but doesn't actually issue IO that could be counted in
nr_queued. So freeze_array is blocked until wait_all_barriers
completes and allow_all_barriers runs. At the same time, when
_wait_barrier sees array_frozen == 1, it stops and waits for
freeze_array to complete.

Prevent the deadlock by making close_sync call _wait_barrier and
_allow_barrier for one bucket at a time, instead of deferring the
_allow_barrier calls until after all _wait_barriers are complete.
