If an fsync occurs on a read-only array, we need to send a completion for the IO and may not increment the active IO count. Otherwise, we hit a bug trace and can't stop the MD array anymore. By advice of Christoph Hellwig we return success upon a flush request but we return -EROFS for other writes. We detect flush requests by checking if the bio has zero sectors. This patch is suitable to any -stable kernel to which it applies.
