md: fix buglet in RAID5 -> RAID0 conversion.
RAID5 uses a 'per-array' value for the 'size' of each device. RAID0 uses a 'per-device' value - it can be different for each device. When converting a RAID5 to a RAID0 we must ensure that the per-device size of each device matches the per-array size for the RAID5, else the array will change size. If the metadata cannot record a changed per-device size (as is the case with v0.90 metadata) the array could get bigger on restart. This does not cause data corruption, so it not a big issue and is mainly yet another a reason to not use 0.90. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
