       md/raid5: If there is a spare and a want_replacement device, start replacement.
    
    cause md_check_recovery to call ->add_disk much more often.
    Instead of only when the array is degraded, it is now called whenever
    md_check_recovery finds anything useful to do, which includes
    updating the metadata for clean<->dirty transition.
    This causes unnecessary work, and causes info messages from ->add_disk
    to be reported much too often.
    
    So refine md_check_recovery to only do any actual recovery checking
    (including ->add_disk) if MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED is set.
    
    This fix is suitable for 3.3.y:
