Speed up raid10 resync, especially for 'far' layout
This patch speeds up resync for raid10, especially for the 'far'
layout, where reading is done in 32 MiB increments and the moving of
heads is therefore much reduced compared to the previous 2 MiB size,
nd the 'far' property of striping read can be employed.
A speed up of more than 50 % has been reported.
