It seems a bit pointless to assign to dev->orig_page twice.
Why not:

  if (dev->orig_page != dev->page)
      put_page(dev->orig_page);
  dev->orig_page = conf->......

This looks a bit odd too.  We never reduce conf->pool_size, so we never
need to free anything.

 for (i = conf->pool_size; i < newsize; i++)
     if ((ndisks[i].extra_page = alloc_page(GFP_NOIO)) == NULL)
         err = -ENOMEM;
 for (i = conf->pool_size; err == -ENOMEM && i < newsize; i++)
     if (ndisks[i].extra_page)
         put_page(ndisks[i].extra_page);


Maybe that it a little terse, but something like that would be better I
think.
Certainly you don't need to free ndisks.  If the allocation succeeds,
just use the new array whether other allocations succeed or fail.

There is no point setting extra_page to NULL, as the whole array is
freed on the next line.


Apart from those few little things, it looks good.  Thanks.
