[PATCH stable/6.18-6.17] md: add check_new_feature module parameter

From: Li Nan <[email protected]>

commit 9c47127a807da3e36ce80f7c83a1134a291fc021 upstream.

Raid checks if pad3 is zero when loading superblock from disk. Arrays
created with new features may fail to assemble on old kernels as pad3
is used.

Add module parameter check_new_feature to bypass this check.
