md: use sysfs_notify_dirent to notify changes to md/dev-xxx/state
The 'state' file for a device reports, for example, when the device has failed. Changes should be reported to userspace ASAP without the possibility of blocking on low-memory. sysfs_notify does have that possibility (as it takes a mutex which can be held across a kmalloc) so use sysfs_notify_dirent instead.
