[PATCH 6 of 8] MD: add sync_super to mddev_t struct

[PATCH 6 of 8] MD: add sync_super to mddev_t struct

[Jonathan Brassow]

Add the 'sync_super' function pointer to MD array structure (struct mddev_s)

If device-mapper (dm-raid.c) is to define its own on-disk superblock and be
able to load it, there must still be a way for MD to initiate superblock
updates.  The simplest way to make this happen is to provide a pointer in
the MD array structure that can be set by device-mapper (or other module)
with a function to do this.  If the function has been set, it will be used;
otherwise, the method with be looked up via 'super_types' as usual.
