md: Fix removal of extra drives when converting RAID6 to RAID5
When a RAID6 is converted to a RAID5, the extra drive should be discarded. However it isn't due to a typo in a comparison. This bug was introduced in commit e93f68a1fc6 in 2.6.35-rc4 and is suitable for any -stable since than. As the extra drive is not removed, the 'degraded' counter is wrong and so the RAID5 will not respond correctly to a subsequent failure. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
