Do not support creating an MD array on a clustered system (--bitmap=clustered) and disks with the write mostly (--write-mostly) flag set. Or do not grow an MD array on a non-clustered bitmap to a clustered bitmap with disks having the write mostly flag set. The actual results is the MD array is created successfully. But the expected results should be a failure with an error message stating: Can not set --write-mostly with a clustered bitmap. and disks marked write-mostly are not supported with clustered bitmap.
