When a device is re-added, it will ultimately need
to be activated and that happens in md_check_recovery,
so we need to set MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED right after
remove_and_add_spares.
A specifical issue without the change is that when
one node perform fail/remove/readd on a disk, but
slave nodes could not add the disk back to array as
expected (added as missed instead of in sync). So
give slave nodes a chance to do resync.
