Subject: md: allow a partially recovered device to be hot-added to an array.
X-Git-Tag: v3.14-rc1~101^2~5
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7eb418851f3278de67126ea0c427641ab4792c57;p=profile%2Fivi%2Fkernel-x86-ivi.git

md: allow a partially recovered device to be hot-added to an array.

When adding a new device into an array it is normally important to
clear any stale data from ->recovery_offset else the new device may
not be recovered properly.

However when re-adding a device which is known to be nearly in-sync,
this is not needed and can be detrimental.  The (bitmap-based)
resync will still happen, and further recovery is only needed from
where-ever it was already up to.

So if save_raid_disk is set, signifying a re-add, don't clear
->recovery_offset.
