[PATCH] md: allow md to update multiple superblocks in parallel.
currently, md updates all superblocks (one on each device) in series. It waits for one write to complete before starting the next. This isn't a big problem as superblock updates don't happen that often. However it is neater to do it in parallel, and if the drives in the array have gone to "sleep" after a period of idleness, then waking them is parallel is faster (and someone else should be worrying about power drain). Futher, we will need parallel superblock updates for a future patch which keeps the intent-logging bitmap near the superblock. Also remove the silly code that retired superblock updates 100 times. This simply never made sense. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
