[PATCH] device-mapper raid1: drop mark_region spinlock fix

The spinlock region_lock is held while calling mark_region which can sleep.
Drop the spinlock before calling that function.

A region's state and inclusion in the clean list are altered by rh_inc and
rh_dec.  The state variable is set to RH_CLEAN in rh_dec, but only if
'pending' is zero.  It is set to RH_DIRTY in rh_inc, but not if it is already
so.  The changes to 'pending', the state, and the region's inclusion in the
clean list need to be atomicly.
