Bug#445573: auto-ro raids have 'recover' for sync-action

[martin f krafft]

Package: mdadm
Version: 2.6.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

sync_action cannot deal with auto-read-only, it seems. Neil, can you
please confirm that you saw this?

wall:~# cat /proc/mdstat | grep '^md1' -A1
md1 : active(auto-read-only) raid1 hdc2[0] hda2[1]
      996020 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU]
wall:~# cat /sys/block/md1/md/sync_action
recover

wall:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md1 bs=1k count=1

wall:~# cat /proc/mdstat | grep '^md1' -A1
md1 : active raid1 hdc2[0] hda2[1]
      996020 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU]
wall:~# cat /sys/block/md1/md/sync_action
idle
