Subject: [PATCH 3/4] md: prevent adding disks with larger logical_block_size to active arrays

From: Li Nan <linan122@...wei.com>

When adding a disk to a md array, avoid updating the array's
logical_block_size to match the new disk. This prevents accidental
partition table loss that renders the array unusable.

The later patch will introduce a way to configure the array's
logical_block_size.
