bitmap_start_sync returns - via a pass-by-reference variable - the
number of sectors before we need to check with the bitmap again.
Since commit
ef4256733506f245 this number can be substantially larger,
2^27 is a common value.
Unfortunately it is an 'int' and so when raid1.c:sync_request shifts
it 9 places to the left it becomes 0. This results in a zero-length
read which the scsi layer justifiably complains about.
This patch just removes the shift so the common case becomes safe with
a trivially-correct patch.
In the next merge window we will convert this 'int' to a 'sector_t'
