I don't think the distinction between "faulty" and "spare" is really
useful here. I used to report the difference and it turned out to be
confusing, so we stopped.
This is information stored on some other disk, not the one that is
spare-or-faulty. All it needs to know if what other devices are
working. It doesn't need to know about which devices aren't working and
why.
The distinction between 'faulty' and 'spare' is only relevant to the
device itself, and to the array as a whole.
We should probably get rid of the distinction between
MD_DISK_ROLE_FAULTY and MD_DISK_ROLE_SPARE.
Most places that test for it just test >= MD_DISK_ROLE_FAULTY.
