[PATCH] md: make messages about resync/recovery etc more specific

It is possible to request a 'check' of an md/raid array where the whole array
is read and consistancies are reported.

This uses the same mechanisms as 'resync' and so reports in the kernel logs
that a resync is being started.  This understandably confuses/worries people.

Also the text in /proc/mdstat suggests a 'resync' is happen when it is just a
check.

This patch changes those messages to be more specific about what is happening.
