TEST: Unaccounted possible output causing failure

lvchange-raid.sh checks to ensure that the 'p'artial flag takes
precedence over the 'w'ritemostly flag by disabling and reenabling
a device in the array.  Most of the time this works fine, but
sometimes the kernel can notice the device failure before it is
reenabled.  In that case, the attr flag will not return to 'w', but
to 'r'efresh.  This is because 'r'efresh also takes precedence over
the 'w'ritemostly flag.  So, we also do a quick check for 'r' and
not just 'w'.
