In function write_init_super1():
If "rv = store_super1(st, di->fd)" return error and the di is the last.
Then the di = NULL && rv > 0, so exec:
if (rv)
    fprintf(stderr, Name ": Failed to write metadata to%s\n",
     	 di->devname);
will be segmentation fault.

Thanks.
This doesn't only go wrong when di is the last.  If di is not the last it
will not crash, but it will report an error for the wrong device.

So thanks for finding this - I've applied you patch and also remove the
'&& ! rv' test from the 'for' loop as it is now pointless.
