[PATCH 004 of 13] md: Split disks array out of raid5 conf structure so it is easier to grow.

From: NeilBrown
Date: Thu Mar 16 2006 - 23:51:05 EST



Previously the array of disk information was included in the
raid5 'conf' structure which was allocated to an appropriate size.
This makes it awkward to change the size of that array.
So we split it off into a separate kmalloced array which will
require a little extra indexing, but is much easier to grow.
