md: always clear ->safemode when md_check_recovery gets the mddev lock.

If ->safemode == 1, md_check_recovery() will try to get the mddev lock
and perform various other checks.
If mddev->in_sync is zero, it will call set_in_sync, and clear
->safemode.  However if mddev->in_sync is not zero, ->safemode will not
be cleared.

When md_check_recovery() drops the mddev lock, the thread is woken
up again.  Normally it would just check if there was anything else to
do, find nothing, and go to sleep.  However as ->safemode was not
cleared, it will take the mddev lock again, then wake itself up
when unlocking.

This results in an infinite loop, repeatedly calling
md_check_recovery(), which RCU or the soft-lockup detector
will eventually complain about.

Prior to commit 4ad23a976413 ("MD: use per-cpu counter for
writes_pending"), safemode would only be set to one when the
writes_pending counter reached zero, and would be cleared again
when writes_pending is incremented.  Since that patch, safemode
is set more freely, but is not reliably cleared.

So in md_check_recovery() clear ->safemode before checking ->in_sync.
