Sorry for the delay. I missed this one.

As I try to apply the patch, I found the patch is somehow corrupted. It contains
special patterns like:

 =09if ((err =3D mutex_lock_interruptible(&mddev->open_mutex)))
 =09=09goto out;
=20
-=09if (test_bit(MD_CLOSING, &mddev->flags)) {
+=09if (test_bit(MD_CLOSING, &mddev->flags) ||
+            (test_bit(MD_DELETING, &mddev->flags) && mddev->pers =3D=3D NU=
LL)) {

Could you please try resend it?

Thanks,
Song
