[PATCH] md: Fix for raid6 reshape.

From: NeilBrown
Date: Thu Mar 01 2007 - 23:58:37 EST


### Comments for Changeset

Recent patch for raid6 reshape had a change missing that showed up in
subsequent review.

Many places in the raid5 code used "conf->raid_disks-1" to mean
"number of data disks". With raid6 that had to be changed to
"conf->raid_disk - conf->max_degraded" or similar. One place was missed.

This bug means that if a raid6 reshape were aborted in the middle the
recorded position would be wrong. On restart it would either fail (as
the position wasn't on an appropriate boundary) or would leave a section
of the array unreshaped, causing data corruption.
