md/raid1,raid10: silence warning about wait-within-wait

If you prepare_to_wait() after a previous prepare_to_wait(),
but before calling schedule(), you get warning:

  do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=2

This is appropriate as it is often a bug.  The event that the
first prepare_to_wait() expects might wake up the schedule following
the second prepare_to_wait(), which could be confusing.

However if both prepare_to_wait()s are part of simple wait_event()
loops, and if the inner one is rarely called, then there is
no problem.  The inner loop is too simple to get confused by
a stray wakeup, and the outer loop won't spin unduly because the
inner doesnt affect it often.

This pattern occurs in both raid1.c and raid10.c in the use of
flush_pending_writes().

The warning can be silenced by setting current->state to TASK_RUNNING.
