[PATCH] md: support md/linear array with components greater than 2 terabytes.
linear currently uses division by the size of the smallest componenet device
to find which device a request goes to. If that smallest device is larger
than 2 terabytes, then the division will not work on some systems.
So we introduce a pre-shift, and take care not to make the hash table too
large, much like the code in raid0.
Also get rid of conf->nr_zones, which is not needed.
