    DM RAID: Add ability to restore transiently failed devices on resume
    
    This patch adds code to the resume function to check over the devices
    in the RAID array.  If any are found to be marked as failed and their
    superblocks can be read, an attempt is made to reintegrate them into
    the array.  This allows the user to refresh the array with a simple
    suspend and resume of the array - rather than having to load a
    completely new table, allocate and initialize all the structures and
    throw away the old instantiation.
