md: fix deadlock when stopping arrays
Resolve a deadlock when stopping redundant arrays, i.e. ones that
require a call to sysfs_remove_group when shutdown. The deadlock is
summarized below:
Thread1 Thread2
------- -------
read sysfs attribute stop array
take mddev lock
sysfs_remove_group
sysfs_get_active
wait for mddev lock
wait for active
