Correction of the number of container or volume member devices (devcnt
in struct mdstat_ent). The number after the last devices was counted
towards member of devices.

This allows finding the array which contains a given component.
Components are named using the kernel-internal string name such
as "sda1" or "hdb".
Don't return member arrays, only the contain that contains them.
Also tidy up the parsing of 'inactive' arrays in /proc/mdstat.
If we see 'inactive' we need to set 'in_devs' immediately as there
is no level coming.

Monitoring /proc/mounts and creating a .pid file as soon as /var/run
is writable is racy. Most distros clean all non-directories from
/var/run early in boot and if mdmon races with this it could
lose the files as soon as they are created.
Instead require that "mdmon --takeover" be run after /var is writable.

/var/run probably doesn't persist from early boot.
So if necessary, store in in /lib/init/rw or somewhere else
that does persist.

From 2.6.30, /proc/mounts and various /sys files will
probably always returns 'readable' to select, so we will need
to wait on POLLPRI to get the 'new data is available' signal.
When using select, this corresponds to an 'exception', so
adjust calls to select accordingly.
In one case we sometimes wait on a socket and sometime on
/proc/mounts, so we need to test which.

Allow mdmon to start while /var/run/mdadm is readonly. Later a SIGHUP
can trigger mdmon to drop its pid and socket once /var/run/mdadm is
writable. Of course one needs the pid to send a HUP, that can be stored
in a distribution specific rw-init directory... For now, rely on a
killall -HUP mdmon to get the files dumped.

When running with SELinux enabled and using mdadm to monitor devices,
attempts to send emails to an admin will be blocked because mdadm is
holding open /proc/mdstat without setting the FD_CLOEXEC flag. As a
result, sendmail has an open descriptor to /proc/mdstat after the
popen() call, which SELinux decides isn't really any of sendmail's
business and so sendmail gets denied.
