drbd: Allow online change of al-stripes and al-stripe-size
Allow to change the AL layout with an resize operation. For that the reisze command gets two new fields: al_stripes and al_stripe_size. In order to make the operation crash save: 1) Lock out all IO and MD-IO 2) Write the super block with MDF_PRIMARY_IND clear 3) write the bitmap to the new location (all zeros, since we allow only while connected) 4) Initialize the new AL-area 5) Write the super block with the restored MDF_PRIMARY_IND. 6) Unfreeze all IO Since the AL-layout has no influence on the protocol, this operation needs to be beforemed on both sides of a resource (if intended).
