[PATCH] md: limit size of sb read/written to appropriate amount



version-1 superblocks are not (normally) 4K long, and can be of variable size.
 Writing the full 4K can cause corruption (but only in non-default
configurations).

With this patch the super-block-flavour can choose a size to read, and set a
size to write based on what it finds.
