FIX: md: process hangs at wait_barrier after 0->10 takeover



Following symptoms were observed:
1. After raid0->raid10 takeover operation we have array with 2
missing disks.
When we add disk for rebuild, recovery process starts as expected
but it does not finish- it stops at about 90%, md126_resync process
hangs in "D" state.
2. Similar behavior is when we have mounted raid0 array and we
execute takeover to raid10. After this when we try to unmount array-
it causes process umount hangs in "D"

In scenarios above processes hang at the same function- wait_barrier
in raid10.c.
Process waits in macro "wait_event_lock_irq" until the
"!conf->barrier" condition will be true.
In scenarios above it never happens.

Reason was that at the end of level_store, after calling pers->run,
we call mddev_resume. This calls pers->quiesce(mddev, 0) with
RAID10, that calls lower_barrier.
However raise_barrier hadn't been called on that 'conf' yet,
so conf->barrier becomes negative, which is bad.

This patch introduces setting conf->barrier=1 after takeover
operation. It prevents to become barrier negative after call
lower_barrier().
