Guoqing Jiang a377a472b9 raid5: call clear_batch_ready before set STRIPE_ACTIVE
We tried to only put the head sh of batch list to handle_list, then the
handle_stripe doesn't handle other members in the batch list. However,
we still got the calltrace in break_stripe_batch_list.

As we can see, the stripe was set with STRIPE_ACTIVE and STRIPE_HANDLE,
and only handle_stripe could set those flags then return. And since the
stipe was already in the batch list, we need to return earlier before
set the two flags.

And after dig a little about git history especially commit 3664847d95
("md/raid5: fix a race condition in stripe batch"), it seems the batched
stipe still could be handled by handle_stipe, then handle_stipe needs to
return earlier if clear_batch_ready to return true.

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.
