mainlining shenanigans

"suspending" IO is overloaded. It can mean "do not allow new requests" (obviously), but it also may mean "must not complete pending IO", for example while the fencing handlers do their arbitration. When adjusting disk options, we suspend io (disallow new requests), then wait for the activity-log to become unused (drain all IO completions), and possibly replace it with a new activity log of different size. If the other "suspend IO" aspect is active, pending IO completions won't happen, and we would block forever (unkillable drbdsetup process). Fix this by skipping the activity log adjustment if the "al-extents" setting did not change. Also, in case it did change, fail early without blocking if it looks like we would block forever.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
