Hi list, when a user does `mdadm -C /dev/md0 -l <any> -n <whatever fits> <devices>`, the array gets rebuilt for at least RAID1 and RAID5, even if the disk contents are most likely not of importance (otherwise we would not be creating a raid array right now). Could not this needless resync be skipped - what do you think?
