[PATCH 000 of 2] md: Fix a bug with backward event updates.

Hi Andrew,

There is a bug in 2.6.18-rc which needs to be fixed before -final,
but there is a patch in -mm which is not scheduled for 2.6.18 which
touches the same code - so that patch has to change.

So:
wind back to
md-replace-magic-numbers-in-sb_dirty-with-well-defined-bit-flags.patch
discard that patch.
Apply 1 of 2 following - that needs to go to Linux (or Greg)
Then apply 2 of 2 to replace the one that was removed.
Then you should be able to wind forwards again and everything will apply.

(If there is some other way you would like me to deal with this
situation - just say so).

Thanks,
NeilBrown
