md: add checkings before flush md_misc_wq

Coly reported possible circular locking dependencyi with LOCKDEP enabled,
quote the below info from the detailed report [1].

[ 1607.673903] Chain exists of:
[ 1607.673903]   kn->count#256 --> (wq_completion)md_misc -->
(work_completion)(&rdev->del_work)
[ 1607.673903]
[ 1607.827946]  Possible unsafe locking scenario:
[ 1607.827946]
[ 1607.898780]        CPU0                    CPU1
[ 1607.952980]        ----                    ----
[ 1608.007173]   lock((work_completion)(&rdev->del_work));
[ 1608.069690]                                lock((wq_completion)md_misc);
[ 1608.149887]                                lock((work_completion)(&rdev->del_work));
[ 1608.242563]   lock(kn->count#256);
[ 1608.283238]
[ 1608.283238]  *** DEADLOCK ***
[ 1608.283238]
[ 1608.354078] 2 locks held by kworker/5:0/843:
[ 1608.405152]  #0: ffff8889eecc9948 ((wq_completion)md_misc){+.+.}, at:
process_one_work+0x42b/0xb30
[ 1608.512399]  #1: ffff888a1d3b7e10
((work_completion)(&rdev->del_work)){+.+.}, at: process_one_work+0x42b/0xb30
[ 1608.632130]

Since works (rdev->del_work and mddev->del_work) are queued in md_misc_wq,
then lockdep_map lock is held if either of them are running, then both of
them try to hold kernfs lock by call kobject_del. Then if new_dev_store
or array_state_store are triggered by write to the related sysfs node, so
the write operation gets kernfs lock, but need the lockdep_map because all
of them would trigger flush_workqueue(md_misc_wq) finally, then the same
lockdep_map lock is needed.

To suppress the lockdep warnning, we should flush the workqueue in case the
related work is pending. And several works are attached to md_misc_wq, so
we need to check which work should be checked:

1. for __md_stop_writes, the purpose of call flush workqueue is ensure sync
thread is started if it was starting, so check mddev->del_work is pending
or not since md_start_sync is attached to mddev->del_work.

2. __md_stop flushes md_misc_wq to ensure event_work is done, check the
event_work is enough. Assume raid_{ctr,dtr} -> md_stop -> __md_stop doesn't
need the kernfs lock.

3. both new_dev_store (holds kernfs lock) and ADD_NEW_DISK ioctl (holds the
bdev->bd_mutex) call flush_workqueue to ensure md_delayed_delete has
completed, this case will be handled in next patch.

4. md_open flushes workqueue to ensure the previous md is disappeared, but
it holds bdev->bd_mutex then try to flush workqueue, so it is better to
check mddev->del_work as well to avoid potential lock issue, this will be
done in another patch.
