Why do you assign to dev_roles[max]?
max must equal i here, and a few lines later:
		sb->dev_roles[i] = __cpu_to_le16(info->disk.raid_disk);

your assignment is over-written.  So it is pointless.
If i was greater than max (which should be impossible), you assignment
here would corrupt the dev_roles table.

Please drop this assignment.

if raid_disks == max there is no need to change anything.
It is only when raid_disks > max that you need to increase max.

When you increase max, you do need to assign MD_DISK_ROLE_SPARE to the
new element, but you need to do that *before* disk.raid_disk is
assigned, in case info->disk.number == max (as it could be for the
recently added device).
