Subject: [PATCH 009 of 10] md: Allow parallel resync of md-devices.
From: Bernd Schubert <bs@...eap.de>
In some configurations, a raid6 resync can be limited by CPU speed
(Calculating P and Q and moving data) rather than by device speed.
In these cases there is nothing to be gained byt serialising resync
of arrays that share a device, and doing the resync in parallel can
provide benefit.
So add a sysfs tunable to flag an array as being allowed to
resync in parallel with other arrays that use (a different part of)
the same device.
