</debug>

These blocks were prepared to be written out, but were never handled in
ops_run_biodrain(), so they remain locked forever.  The operations flags
are all clear which means handle_stripe() thinks nothing else needs to be
done.

This state suggests that the STRIPE_OP_PREXOR bit was sampled 'set' when it
should not have been.  This patch cleans up cases where the code looks at
sh->ops.pending when it should be looking at the consistent stack-based
snapshot of the operations flags.

Report from Joel:
	Resync done. Patch fix this bug.
