For v1.x metadata, the chunk size (both chunksize and new_chunk) is stored in sectors. in 0.90 it is stored in bytes. (in DDF, it is stored as the base-2 log of sectors, but that is not relevant for the kernel). So as mddev->new_chunk is (still) in bytes, we need to shift by 9. ?? I'll sort through the rest of the patches tomorrow, but that look fine.
