md: Fix is_mddev_idle test (again).

neilbrown · neilbrown · commit eea1bf384e05 · 2009-03-31T14:27:02.000+11:00
There are two problems with is_mddev_idle.

1/ sync_io is 'atomic_t' and hence 'int'.  curr_events and all the
   rest are 'long'.
   So if sync_io were to wrap on a 64bit host, the value of
   curr_events would go very negative suddenly, and take a very
   long time to return to positive.

   So do all calculations as 'int'.  That gives us plenty of precision
   for what we need.

2/ To initialise rdev-&gt;last_events we simply call is_mddev_idle, on
   the assumption that it will make sure that last_events is in a
   suitable range.  It used to do this, but now it does not.
   So now we need to be more explicit about initialisation.
