Hopefully you just need to add "--force" to the assemble command and it would all just work. However I haven't tested that on an array that is in the process of a reshape so I cannot promise. I might try to reproduce your situation and with some scratch drives and check that mdadm -Af does the right thing, but it won't be a day or so, and as I cannot see the --examine output I might get the situation a bit wrong ...
