Bug description:
  [TEST CASE]
  (culled from Debian bug report)
  Assuming /dev/vdb and /dev/vdc are blank devices (BE CAREFUL!):

  
  # dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=100 of=/dev/vdb
  # dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=100 of=/dev/vdc
  # mdadm -C -l 1 -n 2 -e 1 --assume-clean /dev/md0 /dev/vdb /dev/vdc
  mdadm: array /dev/md0 started.
  # mdadm -G -b internal /dev/md0
  mdadm: failed to set internal bitmap.

  A fixed version should not fail to set the internal bitmap
