md/raid10: handle merge_bvec_fn in member devices.
Currently we don't honour merge_bvec_fn in member devices so if there
is one, we force all requests to be single-page at most.
This is not ideal.
So enhance the raid10 merge_bvec_fn to check that function in children
as well.
This introduces a small problem. There is no locking around calls
the ->merge_bvec_fn and subsequent calls to ->make_request. So a
device added between these could end up getting a request which
violates its merge_bvec_fn.
Currently the best we can do is synchronize_sched(). This will work
providing no preemption happens. If there is preemption, we just
have to hope that new devices are largely consistent with old devices.
