The intended global interpretation is that raid5_run_ops can build a chain
of xor and memcpy operations.  When MD registers the compute-xor it tells
async_tx to keep the operation handle around so that another item in the
dependency chain can be submitted. If we are just computing a block to
satisfy a read then we can terminate the chain immediately.  raid5_run_ops
gives a better context for this test since it cares about the entire chain.
