When an array has a bitmap, a device can be removed and re-added
and only blocks changes since the removal (as recorded in the bitmap)
will be resynced.
It should be possible to do a similar thing to arrays without bitmaps.
i.e. if a device is removed and re-added and *no* changes have been
made in the interim, then the add should not require a resync.
This patch allows that option.
This means that when assembling an array one device at a time (e.g.
during device discovery) the array can be enabled read-only as soon
as enough devices are available, but extra devices can still be added
without causing a resync.
