md: initialize 'writes_pending' while allocating mddev
Currently 'writes_pending' is initialized in pers->run for raid1/5/10, and it's freed while deleing mddev, instead of pers->free. pers->run can be called multiple times before mddev is deleted, and a helper mddev_init_writes_pending() is used to prevent 'writes_pending' to be initialized multiple times, this usage is safe but a litter weird. On the other hand, 'writes_pending' is only initialized for raid1/5/10, however, it's used in common layer, for example: array_state_store set_in_sync if (!mddev->in_sync) -> in_sync is used for all levels // access writes_pending There might be some implicit dependency that I don't recognized to make sure 'writes_pending' can only be accessed for raid1/5/10, but there are no comments about that. By the way, it make sense to initialize 'writes_pending' in common layer because there are already three levels use it.
