Dear Neil,

Thanks for your good works.
One query about current grow supporting  status:

as the raid wiki show : the RAID level 1/4/5/6 array can be grown . In
my test I can grow raid 1 add disk or remove disk through mdadm grow,
but change level from 1 to 4 or 5 will fail. the simaliar command work
for change level between 4/5/6, change 1 to 10 fail too.

My kernel version is 3.2.15. mdadm version 3.2.3.
