Always assume SKIP_GONE_DEVS behaviour and kill the flag
...i.e. GET_DEVS == (GET_DEVS|SKIP_GONE_DEVS) A null pointer dereference in Incremental.c can be triggered by replugging a disk while the old name is in use. When mdadm -I is called on the new disk we fail the call to sysfs_read(). I audited all the locations that use GET_DEVS and it appears they can tolerate missing a drive. So just make SKIP_GONE_DEVS the default behaviour. Also fix up remaining unchecked usages of the sysfs_read() return value.
