Patch adds to mdadm man the following information: --freeze-reshape Option is intended to be used in start-up scripts during initrd boot phase. When array under reshape is assembled during initrd phase, this option stops reshape after reshape critical section is being restored. This happens before file system pivot operation and avoids lost of file system context. Loosing file system context would cause reshape to be broken. Reshape can be continued later using -continue option for grow command.
