md/raid: only permit hot-add of compatible integrity profiles
It is not safe for an integrity profile to be changed while i/o is in-flight in the queue. Prevent adding new disks or otherwise online spares to an array if the device has an incompatible integrity profile. The original change to the blk_integrity_unregister implementation in md, commmit c7bfced9a671 "md: suspend i/o during runtime blk_integrity_unregister" introduced an immediate hang regression. This policy of disallowing changes the integrity profile once one has been established is shared with DM. Here is an abbreviated log from a test run that: 1/ Creates a degraded raid1 with an integrity-enabled device (pmem0s) [ 59.076127] 2/ Tries to add an integrity-disabled device (pmem1m) [ 90.489209] 3/ Retries with an integrity-enabled device (pmem1s) [ 205.671277] [ 59.076127] md/raid1:md0: active with 1 out of 2 mirrors [ 59.078302] md: data integrity enabled on md0 [..] [ 90.489209] md0: incompatible integrity profile for pmem1m [..] [ 205.671277] md: super_written gets error=-5 [ 205.677386] md/raid1:md0: Disk failure on pmem1m, disabling device.
