Subject: [PATCH 311/359] super1: make write_bitmap1 compatible with previous
mdadm versions
References: bsc#1007165
For older mdadm version, v1.x metadata has different bitmap_offset,
we can't ensure all the bitmaps are on a 4K boundary since writing
4K for bitmap could corrupt the superblock, and Anthony reported
the bug about it at below link.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=837964
So let's check about the alignment for bitmap_offset before set
the boundary to 4096 unconditionally. Thanks for Neil's detailed
explanation.
