Allow faulty devices to be removed from a readonly array.

Browse source

Removing faulty devices from an array is a two stage process.
First the device is moved from being a part of the active array
to being similar to a spare device.  Then it can be removed
by a request from user space.

The first step is currently not performed for read-only arrays,
so the second step can never succeed.

So allow readonly arrays to remove failed devices (which aren't
blocked).
