dm raid1: split touched state into two
Split the variable "touched" into two, "touched_dirtied" and "touched_cleaned", set when some region was dirtied or cleaned. This will be used to optimize flushes. After a transition from "dirty" to "clean" state we don't have flush hardware cache on the log device. After a transition from "clean" to "dirty" the cache must be flushed. Before a transition from "clean" to "dirty" state we don't have to flush all the raid legs. Before a transition from "dirty" to "clean" we must flush all the legs to make sure that they are really in sync.
