[patch 059/149] md: set mddev readonly flag on blkdev BLKROSET ioctl

[Greg KH]

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>

commit e2218350465e7e0931676b4849b594c978437bce upstream.

When the user sets the block device to readwrite then the mddev should
follow suit.  Otherwise, the BUG_ON in md_write_start() will be set to
trigger.

The reverse direction, setting mddev->ro to match a set readonly
request, can be ignored because the blkdev level readonly flag precludes
the need to have mddev->ro set correctly.  Nevermind the fact that
setting mddev->ro to 1 may fail if the array is in use.
