SRU Justification:

Impact: Regression for users of dmraid.

This is a regression in Hardy which is very simple to fix and otherwise prevents the use of fakeraid disks (limited hardware controllers on motherboards) with RAID level 4 and 5.

Fix description: Device-mapper targets normally follow a certain naming scheme, which enables loading missing target types. The fix will change the Makefile in LUM to build dm-raid45.ko instead of dm-raid4-5.ko.

Patch: [Attached]

Testcase: Activation of dmraid for RAID4 or RAID5 arrays fails with error message "dm-raid45 is not in kernel". Verification of fix has been documentet in the bug report.
