md/raid5: clearly differentiate 'before' and 'after' stripes during reshape.
During a raid5 reshape, we have some stripes in the cache that are 'before' the reshape (and are still to be processed) and some that are 'after'. They are currently differentiated by having different ->disks values as the only reshape current supported involves changing the number of disks. However we will soon support reshapes that do not change the number of disks (chunk parity or chunk size). So make the difference more explicit with a 'generation' number.
