Th array will not be modified, so:

static const char * const action_names[NR_SYNC_ACTIONS]

My brain was lost sometimes looking into nested conditions of md 
code...
I agree with Xiao Ni's suggestion that more comments about the 
array
state should be added.

In action_show, MD_RECOVERY_SYNC is tested first then 
MD_RECOVERY_RECOVER.
After looking through the logic of MD_RECOVERY_RECOVER 
clear/set_bit, the
change is fine to me. However, better to follow old pattern unless 
there
have resons.

And 'const char *'
