md: Don't wait UNINTERRUPTIBLE for other resync to finish
When two md arrays share some block device (e.g each uses different
partitions on the one device), a resync of one array will wait for
the resync on the other to finish.
This can be a long time and as it currently waits TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE,
the softlockup code notices and complains.
So use TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE instead and make sure to flush signals
before calling schedule.
