Gayatri Kammela 099b548c42 raid6/test/test.c: bug fix: Specify aligned(alignment) attributes to the char arrays
Specifying the aligned attributes to the char data[NDISKS][PAGE_SIZE],
char recovi[PAGE_SIZE] and char recovi[PAGE_SIZE] arrays, so that all
malloc memory is page boundary aligned.

Without these alignment attributes, the test causes a segfault in
userspace when the NDISKS are changed to 4 from 16.

The RAID stripes will be page aligned anyway, so we want to test what
the kernel actually will execute.

Markus Stockhausen 7e92e1d762 md/raid6 algorithms: improve test program
It is always helpful to have a test tool in place if we implement
new data critical algorithms. So add some test routines to the raid6
checker that can prove if the new xor_syndrome() works as expected.

Run through all permutations of start/stop pages per algorithm and
simulate a xor_syndrome() assisted rmw run. After each rmw check if
the recovery algorithm still confirms that the stripe is fine.

David Woodhouse cc4589ebfa Rename raid6 files now they're in a 'raid6' directory.
Linus asks 'why "raid6" twice?'. No reason.
