[PATCH] md: improve 'scan_mode' and rename it to 'sync_action'
The current sync_action for an array can be one of
idle - nothing happening
resync - reduncancy being recalcualted
recover - missing device being recoverred to spare
check - user initiated check of redundancy
repair - like resync but user-initiated and ignores
bitmap optimisation.
Each of these strings can also be written to the 'sync_action' file to cause
that action to happen (if appropriate).
While 'sync' is not technically correct, as a recovery is *not* a 'sync', I
think it is the most servicable word here. Also 'action' is a strong word
than 'mode'.
