md/raid5: remove rcu protection to access rdev from conf
Because it's safe to accees rdev from conf: - If any spinlock is held, because synchronize_rcu() from md_kick_rdev_from_array() will prevent 'rdev' to be freed until spinlock is released; - If 'reconfig_lock' is held, because rdev can't be added or removed from array; - If there is normal IO inflight, because mddev_suspend() will prevent rdev to be added or removed from array; - If there is sync IO inflight, because 'MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING' is checked in remove_and_add_spares(). And these will cover all the scenarios in raid456.
