[ Upstream commit b721e7885eb242aa2459ee66bb42ceef1bcf0f0c ] 'active_io' used to be initialized while the array is running, and 'mddev->pers' is set while the array is running as well. Hence caller must hold 'reconfig_mutex' and guarantee 'mddev->pers' is set before calling mddev_suspend(). Now that 'active_io' is initialized when mddev is allocated, such restriction doesn't exist anymore. In the meantime, follow up patches will refactor mddev_suspend(), hence add checking for 'mddev->pers' to prevent null-ptr-deref.

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.
