md: improve the is_mddev_idle test fix

Browse Source 
Don't use 'unsigned' variable to track sync vs non-sync IO, as the only thing
we want to do with them is a signed comparison, and fix up the comment which
had become quite wrong.

* 32*64K in raid1/10 and 256*PAGE_SIZE in raid5/6
* which is at most 4096 sectors.
* These numbers are fairly fragile and should be made

* 'window size' that md_do_sync sort-of uses.
/* sync IO will cause sync_io to increase before the disk_stats
* as sync_io is counted when a request starts, and
* disk_stats is counted when it completes.
* So resync activity will cause curr_events to be smaller than
* when there was no such activity.
* non-sync IO will cause disk_stat to increase without
* increasing sync_io so curr_events will (eventually)
* be larger than it was before. Once it becomes
* substantially larger, the test below will cause
* the array to appear non-idle, and resync will slow
* down.
* If there is a lot of outstanding resync activity when
* we set last_event to curr_events, then all that activity
* completing might cause the array to appear non-idle
* and resync will be slowed down even though there might
* not have been non-resync activity. This will only
* happen once though. 'last_events' will soon reflect
* the state where there is little or no outstanding
* resync requests, and further resync activity will
* always make curr_events less than last_events.
*
* Note: the following is an unsigned comparison.
