md: use mddev->lock to protect updates to resync_{min,max}.
There are interdependencies between these two sysfs attributes and whether a resync is currently running. Rather than depending on reconfig_mutex to ensure no races when testing these interdependencies are met, use the spinlock. This will allow the mutex to be remove from protecting this code in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
