md/raid1: stop mdx_raid1 thread when raid1 array run failed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/raid1: stop mdx_raid1 thread when raid1 array run failed fail run raid1 array when we assemble array with the inactive disk only, but the mdx_raid1 thread were not stop, Even if the associated resources have been released. it will caused a NULL dereference when we do poweroff.
