  lib/raid6: Add log level to printks (2014-10-14 13:08:29 +1100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
md updates for 3.18

- a few minor bug fixes
- quite a lot of code tidy-up and simplification
- remove PRINT_RAID_DEBUG ioctl.  I'm fairly sure
  it is unused, and it isn't particularly useful.

      md: use set_bit/clear_bit instead of shift/mask for bi_flags changes.
      md/raid10: another memory leak due to reshape.
      md/raid1: process_checks doesn't use its return value.
      md: be more relaxed about stopping an array which isn't started.
      md: use wait_event() to simplify md_super_wait()
      md: discard find_rdev_nr in favour of find_rdev_nr_rcu
      md: simplify export_array()
      md: Just use RCU when checking for overlap between arrays.

      md: don't allow "-sync" to be set for device in an active array.
      md: remove unnecessary test for MD_MAJOR in md_ioctl()
