[dm-devel] [PATCH] DM RAID: do not print rebuilds in table line

[Jonathan Brassow]

Patch name: dm-raid-do-not-print-rebuilds-in-table-line.patch

DM RAID table status should not include rebuild parameters.

When a DM RAID device is constructed, a user may supply a 'rebuild <idx>'
pair of parameters to indicate that they want a specific device in the
array rebuilt.  This action should clear the 'recovery_offset' for the
device so that any subsequent reloading of the device will pick up where
it left off.  The rebuild option is unnecessary and, in fact, unwanted
unless it is the intent to begin the rebuild process again.  Therefore,
we should never include the rebuild parameters when printing the DM
table via the status function.
