	 * the array - and then submit a number of
	 * ADD_NEW_DISK ioctls to add disks into
	 * the array.  Finally RUN_ARRAY might

	 *    - has a valid uuid (or any uuid if !uuidset)
	 *
	 * If mddev is set, we try to determine state of md.
	 *   check version - must be at least 0.90.0
	 *   check kernel version.  must be at least 2.4.
	 *    If not, we can possibly fall back on START_ARRAY
	 *   Try to GET_ARRAY_INFO.
	 *     If possible, give up
	 *     If not, try to STOP_ARRAY just to make sure
	 *
	 * If !uuidset and scan, look in conf-file for uuid
	 *       If not found, give up
	 * If !devlist and scan and uuidset, get list of devs from conf-file
	 *
	 * For each device:
	 *   Check superblock - discard if bad
	 *   Check uuid (set if we don't have one) - discard if no match
	 *   Check superblock similarity if we have a superblock - discard if different
	 *   Record events, devicenum
	 * This should give us a list of devices for the array
	 * We should collect the most recent event number
	 *
