[PATCH] md: improvements to raid5 handling of read errors
Two refinements to the 'attempt-overwrite-on-read-error' mechanism.
1/ If the array is read-only, don't attempt an over-write.
2/ If there are more than max_nr_stripes read errors on a device with
no success, fail the drive. This will make sure a dead
drive will be eventually kicked even when we aren't trying
to rewrite (which would normally kick a dead drive more quickly.
