Commit 6607cd319b ("raid1: ensure write
behind bio has less than BIO_MAX_VECS sectors") tried to guarantee the
size of behind bio is not bigger than BIO_MAX_VECS sectors.
Unfortunately the same calltrace still could happen since an array could
enable write-behind without write mostly device.
To match the manpage of mdadm (which says "write-behind is only attempted
on drives marked as write-mostly"), we need to check WriteMostly flag to
avoid such unexpected behavior.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
