Here are a few raid6check fixes. This series also includes a patch for
Makefile to allow to build with optimizations. I only fixed raid6check
to build with -O3, but I don't have time left today to fix mdadm 
(e.g. Grow.c:2237:41: error: ‘info2.data_offset’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized])

Thanks for mentioning that.  I've fix that problem.

I wanted to send the memleak-fixes much earlier, but then
I had been too busy. This patch is lightly tested, patches
from today are only build-tested.

Hi Neil,

BTW, what's your plan of including "raid6check"
into a main release of "mdadm" package?

Do you have "deadline" in mind?

What exactly do you mean by that?
raid6check.c is already in the upstream git tree and was in mdadm-3.2.5.

Do you mean when will it be included by distros?  That is really up to them.
I could get "make install" to install it I guess.
I haven't really thought about what would be required for that.

I'll add it to my list of things to think about.

Thanks,
