Possible leak during reshaping layout

I may have stumbled into a kernel memory leak during reshaping of a RAID 10
from offset to near layout:

I have a RAID 10 array which was previously in offset layout. I decided to
reshape to a near layout. Eventually the machine had become very sluggish,
the load average shot up, and the reshape slowed down to nearly nothing.

A look at slabtop appears to show that there is an allocation that is
larger than the physical RAM (16GB):
