[PATCH] md: set desc_nr correctly for version-1 superblocks
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This has to be done in ->load_super, not ->validate_super

Without this, hot-adding devices to an array doesn't always
work right - though there is a work around in mdadm-2.5.2 to
make this less of an issue.
