Subject: [PATCH] mdadm: monitor: fix nullptr dereference when get_md_name()
returns NULL
Function add_new_arrays() expects that function get_md_name() should
return pointer to devname, but also get_md_name() may return NULL. So
check the pointer before use it in add_new_arrays().

v2 -> v3: - continue instead of return
- avoid mem leak (thanks to David F.)
