    md: allow upper limit for resync/reshape to be set when array is read-only · 4d484a4a

    Normally we only allow the upper limit for a reshape to be decreased
    when the array not performing a sync/recovery/reshape, otherwise there
    could be races.  But if an array is part-way through a reshape when it
    is assembled the reshape is started immediately leaving no window
    to set an upper bound.
    
    If the array is started read-only, the reshape will be suspended until
    the array becomes writable, so that provides a window during which it
    is perfectly safe to reduce the upper limit of a reshape.
    
    So: allow the upper limit (sync_max) to be reduced even if the reshape
    thread is running, as long as the array is still read-only.
