Looks like there's a bug somewhere. The documentation says that 0.90
metadata doesn't support >2TB components for RAID levels 1 and above.
If this is still correct, mdadm should have prevented you growing the

I'd suggest recreating the array with 1.x metadata instead and checking
whether that runs into the same issue.
