Description (last modified by thomas)

At ​https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/ it is still the version 4.3 the latest. But at ​https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/mdadm/mdadm.git/ there is a 4.4 since 8 month. The link to that file is

​https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/mdadm/mdadm.git/snapshot/mdadm-4.4.tar.gz

The gcc15 fix I've put into our 4.3 is still required in 4.4 but is fixed upstream in the repo in exact this way and will be in 4.5.
