raid5: fix stripe release order
patch "make release_stripe lockless" changes the order stripes are released. Originally I thought block layer can take care of request merge, but it appears there are still some requests not merged. It's easy to fix the order. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
