Yu Kuai 61c90765e1 md: remove redundant check of 'mddev->sync_thread'
The lifetime of sync_thread:

1) Set MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED and wake up daemon thread (by ioctl/sysfs or
   other events);
2) Daemon thread woke up, md_check_recovery() found that
   MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED is set:
   a) try to grab reconfig_mutex;
   b) set MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING;
   c) clear MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED, and then queue sync_work;
3) md_start_sync() choose sync_action, then register sync_thread;
4) md_do_sync() is done, set MD_RECOVERY_DONE and wake up daemon thread;
5) Daemon thread woke up, md_check_recovery() found that
   MD_RECOVERY_DONE is set:
   a) try to grab reconfig_mutex;
   b) unregister sync_thread;
   c) clear MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING and MD_RECOVERY_DONE;

Hence there is no such case that MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING is not set, while
sync_thread is registered.

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.
