Subject: [PATCH 024/359] config: new option to suppress adding bad block
 lists.
References: bsc#1081910

   CREATE bbl=no

in mdadm.conf will cause any devices added to an array
to not have a bad block list.  By default they do for 1.x
metadata.

This is useful if you are suspicious of the bad-block-list
implementation.
