X-Git-Tag: MMI-PSA29.97-13-9~27238^2~5 X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3a981b03f38dc3b8a69b77cbc679e66c1318a44a;p=GitHub%2FMotorolaMobilityLLC%2Fkernel-slsi.git md: when a level change reduces the number of devices, remove the excess. When an array is changed from RAID6 to RAID5, fewer drives are needed. So any device that is made superfluous by the level conversion must be marked as not-active. For the RAID6->RAID5 conversion, this will be a drive which only has 'Q' blocks on it.
