dm raid1: clear region outside spinlock

Browse Source 
A clear_region function is permitted to block (in practice, rare) but gets
called in rh_update_states() with a spinlock held.

The bits being marked and cleared by the above functions are used
to update the on-disk log, but are never read directly.  We can
perform these operations outside the spinlock since the
bits are only changed within one thread viz.
   - mark_region in rh_inc()
   - clear_region in rh_update_states().

So, we grab the clean_regions list items via list_splice() within the
spinlock and defer clear_region() until we iterate over the list for
deletion - similar to how the recovered_regions list is already handled.
We then move the flush() call down to ensure it encapsulates the changes
which are done by the later calls to clear_region().
