[PATCH] md: delay starting md threads until array is completely setup 

When an array is started we start one or two threads (two if there is a
reshape or recovery that needs to be completed).

We currently start these *before* the array is completely set up and in
particular before queue->queuedata is set.  If the thread actually starts
very quickly on another CPU, we can end up dereferencing queue->queuedata
and oops.

This patch also makes sure we don't try to start a recovery if a reshape is
being restarted.
