Using md_get_array_info() to determine if an array is valid is broken
during creation, since the ioctl() returns -ENODEV if the device is
valid but not active.

When an array is created the content is not initialized,
so it could have remnants of an old filesystem or md array
etc on it.
udev will see this and might try to activate it, which is almost
certainly not what is wanted.
So create a mechanism for mdadm to communicate with udev to tell
it that the device isn't ready. This mechanism is the existance
of a file /run/mdadm/created-mdXXX where mdXXX is the md device name.
When creating an array, mdadm will create the file.
A new udev rule file, 01-md-raid-creating.rules, will detect the
precense of thst file and set ENV{SYSTEMD_READY}="0".
This is fairly uniformly used to suppress actions based on the
contents of the device.

If an array contains a device which has a name that
contains something other than alphnumerics and underscores,
then some values reported by "mdadm --detail --export" will
not be valid as variable assignment of the shell.
This particularly affects dm devices.
e.g.
MD_DEVICE_dm-4_ROLE=1
MD_DEVICE_dm-4_DEV=/dev/dm-4
As it is particularly useful to be able to work with these
in a shell script, and as the precise name is not important,
change all non-alphanumerics to '_'.
MD_DEVICE_dm_4_ROLE=1
MD_DEVICE_dm_4_DEV=/dev/dm-4

Commit cec72c071b ("systemd/mdadm-last-resort: add Conflicts to .service file.")
added a 'Conflicts' directive to the mdadm-last-resort@.service file in
the hope that this would make sure the service didn't run after the device
was active, even if the timer managed to get started, which is possible in
race conditions.
This seemed to work is testing, but it isn't clear why, and it is known
to cause problems.
If systemd happens to know that the mentioned device is a dependency of a
mount point, the Conflicts can unmount that mountpoint, which is certainly
not wanted.
So remove the "Conflicts" and instead use
ConditionPathExists=!/sys/devices/virtual/block/%i/md/sync_action
The "sync_action" file exists for any array which requires last-resort
handling, and only appears when the array is activated. So it is safe
to rely on it to determine if the last-resort is really needed.

Grow_continue_command() call verify_reshape_position(), which assumes
that info->sys_name is initialised.
'info' in verify_reshape_position() is 'content' in Grow_continue_command().
In the st->ss->external != 0 branch of that function, sysfs_init() is called
to initialize content->sys_name.
In the st->ss->external == 0 branch, ->sys_name is not initialized so
verify_reshape_position() will not do the right thing.

In a sufficiently recent kernel, an md%d array can be
created by writing to .../parameters/new_array.
If mdadm does this consistently, then another new
feature, disabling create_on_open, can be enabled.
This avoids races on shutdown.
An added benefit of using new_array (where available)
is that it allows md arrays with numbers larger than 511
(e.g. md999) to be created. The old create_on_open
mechanism doesn't support such devices since
Commit: af5628f05db6 ("md: disable probing for md devices 512 and over.")
in Linux 3.17.
After a few more mdadm releases it would be good to
have mdadm disable create_on_open automatically.
