md: expose max value of behind writes counter
Keep track of the maximum number of concurrent write-behind requests for an md array and exposed this number in sysfs at md/bitmap/max_backlog_used Writing any value to this file will clear it. This allows userspace to be involved in tuning bitmap/backlog. Signed-off-by: Paul Clements <paul.clements@steeleye.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
