Does it really mean that this funcionality is already available for
raid5??? That would be great news.
Yes.  It has been in -mm for a while, and will be in 2.6.15.  The
raid1/raid6/raid10 versions will have to wait for 2.6.16.

I'll probably do a little 'md Release notes' announcement when 2.6.15
comes out if I remember.
