md/raid10: Fix memory leak when raid10 reshape completes.
When a raid10 commences a resync/recovery/reshape it allocates some buffer space. When a resync/recovery completes the buffer space is freed. But not when the reshape completes. This can result in a small memory leak. There is a subtle side-effect of this bug. When a RAID10 is reshaped to a larger array (more devices), the reshape is immediately followed by a "resync" of the new space. This "resync" will use the buffer space which was allocated for "reshape". This can cause problems including a "BUG" in the SCSI layer. So this is suitable for -stable. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org (v3.5+) Fixes: 3ea7daa5d7fde47cd41f4d56c2deb949114da9d6 Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
