Merge tag 'md/4.12-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shli/md

Pull MD fixes from Shaohua Li:

 - Several bug fixes for raid5-cache from Song Liu, mainly handle
   journal disk error

 - Fix bad block handling in choosing raid1 disk from Tomasz Majchrzak

 - Simplify external metadata array sysfs handling from Artur
   Paszkiewicz

 - Optimize raid0 discard handling from me, now raid0 will dispatch
   large discard IO directly to underlayer disks.
