[ 25/56] md: Avoid write invalid address if read_seqretry returned true.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Nov 30 2012 - 13:56:16 EST


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

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

From: majianpeng <majianpeng@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 35f9ac2dcec8f79d7059ce174fd7b7ee3290d620 upstream.

If read_seqretry returned true and bbp was changed, it will write
invalid address which can cause some serious problem.

This bug was introduced by commit v3.0-rc7-130-g2699b67.
So fix is suitable for 3.0.y thru 3.6.y.
