[patch 08/26] md: Fix bug in error handling during raid1 repair.

[Greg KH]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Mike Accetta <maccetta@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If raid1/repair (which reads all block and fixes any differences
it finds) hits a read error, it doesn't reset the bio for writing
before writing correct data back, so the read error isn't fixed,
and the device probably gets a zero-length write which it might
complain about.
