This is probably ineffective.  If the array thinks it needs to resync, then
just setting it to 'idle' will only stop in temporarily.  It will immediately
start syncing again.

However given that it is a RAID5 array which is degraded, it shouldn't try to
resync at all.

So:  does it still work if you remove this line?  If so, could you send a
patch to remove it?
If not - we should work out why.
