Guoqing Jiang d1d90147c9 md: always set THREAD_WAKEUP and wake up wqueue if thread existed
Since commit 4ad23a9764 ("MD: use per-cpu counter for writes_pending"),
the wait_queue is only got invoked if THREAD_WAKEUP is not set previously.

With above change, I can see process_metadata_update could always hang on
the wait queue, because mddev->thread could stay on 'D' status and the
THREAD_WAKEUP flag is not cleared since there are lots of place to wake up
mddev->thread. Then deadlock happened as follows:

linux175:~ # ps aux|grep md|grep D
root    20117   0.0 0.0         0   0 ? D   03:45   0:00 [md0_raid1]
root    20125   0.0 0.0         0   0 ? D   03:45   0:00 [md0_cluster_rec]
linux175:~ # cat /proc/20117/stack
[<ffffffffa0635604>] dlm_lock_sync+0x94/0xd0 [md_cluster]

[<ffffffffa04d2252>] md_thread+0x122/0x150 [md_mod]
[<ffffffff81091741>] kthread+0x101/0x140
linux175:~ # cat /proc/20125/stack
[<ffffffffa0636679>] recv_daemon+0x3f9/0x5c0 [md_cluster]
[<ffffffffa04d2252>] md_thread+0x122/0x150 [md_mod]
[<ffffffff81091741>] kthread+0x101/0x140

So let's revert the part of code in the commit to resovle the problem since
we can't get lots of benefits of previous change.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
