From: Greg KH on
2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams(a)intel.com>

commit 5157b4aa5b7de8787b6318e61bcc285031bb9088 upstream.

The raid6 recovery code should immediately drop back to the optimized
synchronous path when a p+q dma resource is not available. Otherwise we
run the non-optimized/multi-pass async code in sync mode.

Verified with raid6test (NDISKS=255)

Applies to kernels >= 2.6.32.
