Fix: Sometimes mdmon throws core dump during reshape

Problem was found during reshaping 2 volumes /raid0 and raid5/ in container.
Sometimes mdmon throws core dump due to NULL pointer exception.

Problem occurs in scenario:
- managemon: is about spare activation (degraded raid4 volume == raid0 under takeover)
- managemon: detect level change and signals monitor (manage_member() calls replace_array())
- monitor: detects transition raid4/5->raid0 and sets a->container to NULL
           to indicate array deactivation
- managemon : continues his work and tries to activate spare (a->check_degraded is set).
              NULL pointer is passed to metadata handler activate_spare()
              Core dump is generated.

To resolve this situation managemon (after monitor kick) checks again
a->container pointer to learn if current array is not to be deactivated.
