raid5: fix clearing of biofill operations

This is the correct merge of the two upstream patches for this issue (it
was mis-merged...)

ops_complete_biofill() runs outside of spin_lock(&sh->lock) and clears the
'pending' and 'ack' bits. Since the test_and_ack_op() macro only checks
against 'complete' it can get an inconsistent snapshot of pending work.

Move the clearing of these bits to handle_stripe5(), under the lock.
