[PATCH] md - 1 of 3 - md/linear oops fix

Three patches for md/raid in 2.5.latest....

### Comments for ChangeSet

From: Daniel McNeil <daniel@xxxxxxxx>

This fixes an oops caused by incorrect usage of sector_div()
in which_dev() in md/linear.c.  It was dereferencing an non-existent
hash table entry.
