md/raid5: activate raid6 rmw feature
Glue it altogehter. The raid6 rmw path should work the same as the
already existing raid5 logic. So emulate the prexor handling/flags
and split functions as needed.
1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer.
2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome
at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity.
3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only
the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync.
4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw
run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and
call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly.
5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.
Performance numbers for a single E5630 system with a mix of 10 7200k
desktop/server disks. 300 seconds random write with 8 threads onto a
3,2TB (10*400GB) RAID6 64K chunk without spare (group_thread_cnt=4)
