AceLan Kao (acelankao) wrote : Infiniate systemd loop when power off the machine with multiple MD RAIDs

[Impact]
The system with multiple MD RAIDs sometimes hangs while rebooting, that's because of the systemd can't stop and close the MD disk.

[Fix]
This commit fixes the issue.

[Test case]
1. Reboot the system with multiple MD RAIDs at least 10 times.
2. Make sure the system can reboot successfully every time.
3. You should not see error messages like below.

[Where problems could occur]
It fixes the data race issue, should not introduce any regression.
