PATCH 1/1 MD RAID10: Improve redundancy of RAID10 'far' and 'offset' algorithms

Neil,

I've changed the way 'far' and 'offset' algorithms are done to reflect your latest suggestions. The case where there were a non-multiple of 'far_copies' devices in the array was the tricky issue we were dealing with. I've separated my patch into two - one dealing with the multiple-of-far_copies case and the other dealing with the non-multiple case.

I had to make some adjustments to the dm-raid patch that includes the new 'far' and 'offset' algorithms and I've included that revised patch in this set.

Thanks,
