mdmon: don't monitor /proc/mounts to decide when to create .pid file.
Monitoring /proc/mounts and creating a .pid file as soon as /var/run is writable is racy. Most distros clean all non-directories from /var/run early in boot and if mdmon races with this it could lose the files as soon as they are created. Instead require that "mdmon --takeover" be run after /var is writable. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
