md: Fix forward incompatibility from configurable logical block size

Browse Source 
Commit 62ed1b5822 ("md: allow configuring logical block size") used
reserved pad to add 'logical_block_size' to metadata. RAID rejects
non-zero reserved pad, so arrays fail when rolling back to old kernels
after booting new ones.

Set 'logical_block_size' only for newly created arrays to support rollback
to old kernels. Importantly new arrays still won't work on old kernels to
prevent data loss issue from LBS changes.

For arrays created on old kernels which confirmed not to rollback,
configure LBS by echo current LBS (queue/logical_block_size) to
md/logical_block_size.
