[PATCH] md: fix innocuous bug in raid6 stripe_to_pdidx
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
stripe_to_pdidx finds the index of the parity disk for a given stripe.  It
assumes raid5 in that it uses "disks-1" to determine the number of data disks.

This is incorrect for raid6 but fortunately the two usages cancel each other
out.  The only way that 'data_disks' affects the calculation of pd_idx in
raid5_compute_sector is when it is divided into the sector number.  But as
that sector number is calculated by multiplying in the wrong value of
'data_disks' the division produces the right value.

So it is innocuous but needs to be fixed.

Also change the calculation of raid_disks in compute_blocknr to make it
more obviously correct (it seems at first to always use disks-1 too).
