If an --add is requested and a re-add looks promising but fails or
cannot possibly succeed, then don't try the add. This avoids
inadvertently turning devices into spares when an array is failed but
the devices seem to actually work.

We were setting ->container_member twice in ddf get_info.
Once to currentconf->vcnum,
once to atoi(st->subarray).
Both should be the same.
For consistency with super-intel, use the first.

As chunk_size in mdstat_ent is never set, we shouldn't copy
it into a->info.array.
In fact, it is safest to get rid of the field altogether.

Check on upper limit of number of devices was in the wrong place.
Result was could not create array with more than 27 devices without
explicitly setting metadata, even though default metadata allows more.

When opening an array to manipulate it we never need to write to the
array and sometimes it might be read-only so the open for write will
fail.
So always open read-only.

Hi Neil,
I noticed that the -Y option, as in mdadm -D -Y /dev/md0, doesn't work
but used as --export it works.
So I made a little patch to fix it, but it is simply sticking a Y in the
list of short_options in ReadMe.c.

When we force-assemble an array which is in the middle of a reshape,
we should repeat the reshape of any parts that aren't recorded in
the oldest superblock.
This is unlikely to make a significant difference, but could make
a small difference, and is safer.

If a request to remove all 'failed' or 'detached' devices chooses to
remove the first device, it will not actually try the removal and will
skip any following devices.
This fixes it.

If udev is not in use, we create device in /dev when assembling
arrays and remove them when stopping the array.
However it may not always be correct to remove the device. If
the array was started with kernel auto-detect, them mdadm didn't
create anything and so shouldn't remove anything.
We don't record whether we created things, so just don't remove
anything with a 'standard' name. Only remove symlinks to the
standard name as we almost certainly created those.

/dev could be read-only in which case we cannot make devices
there.
So dev_open should first try to use an existing device name,

Commit 3a6ec29ad5 stopped us from adding apparently-working devices
to an active array with --incremental as there is a good chance that they
are actually old/failed devices.
Unfortunately it also stopped spares from being added to an active
array, which is wrong. This patch refines the test to be more
careful.

Commit 3288b419 (Revert "Incremental: honor --no-degraded to delay assembly")
killed the --no-degraded flag since commit 97b4d0e9 (Incremental: honor
an 'enough' flag from external handlers) made this the default behavior
of -I, and brought -I usage for external/container formats in line with
native metadata. However, this breaks existing usages of '-I
--no-degraded', so allow it as a deprecated option.
Starting a degraded container, like the native metadata case, requires -R.

Having multiple possible locations and guessing where best to put the
file is too messy, confusing and makes locking problematic.
So just keep it in /dev/.mdadm/map. It is a horrible place but it is
really all we have. System integrators can change this easily at
build time.

The 'container_enough' changes fliped the default from assembling
an array as soon as we possibly could, to assembling only when all
expected devices are present.
This broken 09imsm-assemble which expects the original default.
