md/linear: avoid corrupting structure while waiting for rcu_free to complete.
I don't know what I was thinking putting 'rcu' after a dynamically sized array! The array could still be in use when we call rcu_free() (That is the point) so we mustn't corrupt it. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
