    md: Move check for bitmap presence to personality code. · 0894cc30
    Andre Noll 提交于
    If the superblock of a component device indicates the presence of a
    bitmap but the corresponding raid personality does not support bitmaps
    (raid0, linear, multipath, faulty), then something is seriously wrong
    and we'd better refuse to run such an array.
    
    Currently, this check is performed while the superblocks are examined,
    i.e. before entering personality code. Therefore the generic md layer
    must know which raid levels support bitmaps and which do not.
    
    This patch avoids this layer violation without adding identical code
    to various personalities. This is accomplished by introducing a new
    public function to md.c, md_check_no_bitmap(), which replaces the
    hard-coded checks in the superblock loading functions.
    
    A call to md_check_no_bitmap() is added to the ->run method of each
    personality which does not support bitmaps and assembly is aborted
    if at least one component device contains a bitmap.
