[ Upstream commit 010444623e7f4da6b4a4dd603a7da7469981e293 ]
Currently, there is no limit for raid1/raid10 plugged bio. While flushing writes, raid1 has cond_resched() while raid10 doesn't, and too many writes can cause soft lockup.
Follow up soft lockup can be triggered easily with writeback test for raid10 with ramdisks:

Fix the problem by adding cond_resched() to raid10 like what raid1 did.
Note that unlimited plugged bio still need to be optimized, for example, in the case of lots of dirty pages writeback, this will take lots of memory and io will spend a long time in plug, hence io latency is bad.
