97f0eb9f0f md/bitmap: clear BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR bit before writing it to sb
For a RAID1 device using a file-based bitmap, if a bitmap write error
occurs but the later writes succeed, it's possible both BITMAP_STALE
and BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR bits will be written to the bitmap super block,
the BITMAP_STALE bit will be handled properly and be cleared, but the
BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR bit in sb->flags will make bitmap_create() to fail.

So clear it to protect against the write failure-and-then-recovery case.

230b55fa8d md: forbid a RAID5 from having both a bitmap and a journal.
Having both a bitmap and a journal is pointless.
Attempting to do so can corrupt the bitmap if the journal
replay happens before the bitmap is initialized.
Rather than try to avoid this corruption, simply
refuse to allow arrays with both a bitmap and a journal.
So:
 - if raid5_run sees both are present, fail.
 - if adding a bitmap finds a journal is present, fail
 - if adding a journal finds a bitmap is present, fail.

935fe0983e md: rename some drivers/md/ files to have an "md-" prefix
Motivated by the desire to illiminate the imprecise nature of
DM-specific patches being unnecessarily sent to both the MD maintainer
and mailing-list.  Which is born out of the fact that DM files also
reside in drivers/md/

Now all MD-specific files in drivers/md/ start with either "raid" or
"md-" and the MAINTAINERS file has been updated accordingly.

Shaohua: don't change module name
