Other than raid1, other levels already have mddev->chunk_secotrs set, and raid456/raid10 already
have a full functional raid0, their takeover can not fail.
Noted normally mdadm will set rdev->sectors and 1.x metadata will reject zero rdev->sectors in super_1_load.
However, it's still possible raid1 can be created with rdev->sectors be zero, this is the root cause of the
problem syzbot reported.
Although raid0_takeover_raid1() already calculate chunksect by mddev->array_sectors, which is exactly the
real rdev->sectors for raid1, and it should be guaranteed such takeover can succeed. However, as it's legacy
usage that rdev->sectors can be zero, I'll suggest just checking rdev->sectors in raid0_takeover_raid1() and
reject if it's 0.
