md: Whenassemble the array, consult the superblock of the freshest device
mainline inclusion from mainline-next-20231220 commit dc1cc22ed58f11d58d8553c5ec5f11cbfc3e3039 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8T02O Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=dc1cc22ed58f11d58d8553c5ec5f11cbfc3e3039 -------------------------------- Upon assembling the array, both kernel and mdadm allow the devices to have event counter difference of 1, and still consider them as up-to-date. However, a device whose event count is behind by 1, may in fact not be up-to-date, and array resync with such a device may cause data corruption. To avoid this, consult the superblock of the freshest device about the status of a device, whose event counter is behind by 1. Signed-off-by:Alex Lyakas <alex.lyakas@zadara.com> Signed-off-by:
