commit 7ceb17e87bde79d285a8b988cfed9eaeebe60b86
md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array.
allowed a bit more than just that. It also allows devices to be added
to a read-write array and to end up skipping recovery.
This patch removes the offending piece of code pending a rewrite for a
subsequent release.
More specifically:
If the array has a bitmap, then the device will still need a bitmap
based resync ('saved_raid_disk' is set under different conditions
is a bitmap is present).
If the array doesn't have a bitmap, then this is correct as long as
nothing has been written to the array since the metadata was checked
by ->validate_super. However there is no locking to ensure that there
was no write.
Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption so
patch is suitable for 3.10-stable.
