Subject: [PATCH] Create: add support for RAID0 layouts.
Git-commit: 329dfc28debb58ffe7bd1967cea00fc583139aca
Patch-mainline: mdadm-4.1+
References: bsc#1162479

Since Linux 5.4 a layout is needed for RAID0 arrays with
varying device sizes.
This patch makes the layout of an array visible (via --examine)
and sets the layout on newly created arrays.
--layout=dangerous
can be used to avoid setting a layout so that they array
can be used on older kernels.
