md: Support write-intent bitmaps with externally managed metadata.
In this case, the metadata needs to not be in the same
sector as the bitmap.
md will not read/write any bitmap metadata. Config must be
done via sysfs and when a recovery makes the array non-degraded
again, writing 'true' to 'bitmap/can_clear' will allow bits in
the bitmap to be cleared again.
