Summary: check_linux_raid returns UNKNOWN for md10 and above

Initial Comment:
The following Bugreport we got against our debian package (1.4.12):

check_linux_raid malfunctions if system has software RAID devices with two or more digits. For example, for system having /dev/md10, /dev/md11 etc, the plugin returns 'UNKNOWN' in automatic mode (if RAID devices are manually specified it works). Also, if system has both one-digit, and two-digit RAID devices, the two-digit devices are silently ignored in checks, which is even more problematic.

Problem is that plugin checks only for 'md[0-9]' devices in /proc/mdstat. Trivial patch which fixes that by looking for 'md[0-9]+' instead is attached.

You can track the bugreport via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=534604

Thanks and kind regards, Jan.

I've applied the patch even though this is a "contrib" plugin (in order to
make the Debian maintainer's life easier) :-)
