[PATCH] md: fix for raid6 reshape

Browse source 
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.
