2.6.23-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Dan Williams patch 0f94e87cdeaaac9f0f9a28a5dd2a5070b87cd3e8 in mainline. We currently do not wait for the block from the missing device to be computed from parity before copying data to the new stripe layout. The change in the raid6 code is not techincally needed as we don't delay data block recovery in the same way for raid6 yet. But making the change now is safer long-term.
