md: fix raid5 'repair' operations
commit bd2ab67030e9116f1e4aae1289220255412b37fd "md: close a livelock window
in handle_parity_checks5" introduced a bug in handling 'repair' operations.
After a repair operation completes we clear the state bits tracking this
operation. However, they are cleared too early and this results in the code
deciding to re-run the parity check operation. Since we have done the repair
in memory the second check does not find a mismatch and thus does not do a
writeback.
Test results:
$ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action
$ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt
51072
$ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action
$ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt
0
(also fix incorrect indentation)
