md/raid10: remove use-after-free bug.
We always need to be careful when calling generic_make_request, as it can start a chain of events which might free something that we are using. Here is one place I wasn't careful enough. If the wbio2 is not in use, then it might get freed at the first generic_make_request call. So perform all necessary tests first. This bug was introduced in 3.3-rc3 (24afd80d99) and can cause an oops, so fix is suitable for any -stable since then. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org (3.3+) Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
