raid10 currently uses the 'backup_blocks' field to store something
else: a minimum offset change.
This is bad practice, we will shortly need to have both for RAID5/6,
so make a separate field.

For RAID5, not being able to set new_data_offset because of
old kernel is not a problem. So make this fatal on for RAID10.
Also remove an unused assignment to 'rv'.

This allows the metadata on a device to be saved and later restored.
This can be useful before experimenting on an array that is misbehaving.

If module parameter start_ro is set, arrays start readonly.
This is OK when assembling, but is very surprising when creating
an array as the resync won't start.
So over-ride the setting (unless --read-only was given) make
arrays RW when created.

We call systemctl to see if systemd will run mdmon for us.
If it cannot, we run mdmon directly, so we aren't interested
in the error message.
So redirect stderr to /dev/null.

With the 'devnm' infrastructure fixed, it is quite easy to support
names like "md_home" for md arrays.
The currently defaults to "off" and can be enabled in mdadm.conf with
CREATE names=yes
This is incase other tools get confused by the new names.

misc_scan assumes that any device name found in the 'mapping' file
is usable. Usually it is but sometimes not, such as for inactive
devices.
Depending on it isn't really robust, when a name is found, check that
it exists. If not, fall back on map_dev.
This will allow "--detail --scan" to notice inactive devices.

If a device is removed which appears to be busy in an md array, then
it is very like the array cannot be used.
We currently try to stop it, but that could fail if udisks had
automatically mounted it.
So tell udisks to unmount it, but ignore any error.

If a sync/recover action is about to start but hasn't actually begun
yet, /proc/mdstat won't show it, but md/sync_action will (it checks
MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED).
So when /proc/mdstat seems to say nothing is happening, double check
with md/sync_action.

Failure to read array_state can only mean the array has been
deleted by the kernel; it is not an indication that the array
is dirty.

Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
When arrays are stopped, sysfs attributes may be deleted by
the kernel, and attempts to read these attributes will fail.
Setting resync_start to 0 is wrong in this case, because it
may make is_resync_complete() erroneously return
FALSE for a clean array. It is better to leave resync_start
untouched (the previously read value for this array).
Otherwise set_array_state() will pass thewrong state information
to the metadata handler, which will write it to disk, and at
the next restart an unnecessary recovery is started for the
array.
It is also possible that resync_start is actually *not* deleted
yet when read_and_act is running, and an apparently valid
value of "0" is read from it, with the same effect as described
above. This happens if the kernel has already called md_clean()
on the array (setting recovery_cp = 0), but the delayed removal
of "resync_start" hasn't happened yet. Therefore, in "clear"
state, "resync_start" shouldn't be read at all.

It makes no sense to listen for events on files that have
been deleted. This happens when arrays are stopped and the
kernel removes the associated sysfs structures.
Calling pselect() on the deleted attributes may cause a storm
of wake events.

Commit c1ea5a98 caused brief_detail_super_ddf() to be called
for subarrays. But the UUID printed was always the one of the
container. This is wrong and actually worse than printing no UUID
at all, and causes the DDF test case (10ddf-create) to fail.
This patch adds code to determine the MD UUID of a subarray correctly.
The hard part is to figure out for which subarray the function is
called. Moved that to an extra function.
