md: Removal of hash table in linear raid

Get rid of sector_div and hash table for linear raid and replace
with a linear search in which_dev.
The hash table adds a lot of complexity for little if any gain.
Ultimately a binary search will be used which will have smaller
cache foot print, a similar number of memory access, and no
divisions.
