The sync_completed after restarting a reshape
(for example - after reboot) is set to "delayed" until
mdmon changes the state. Mdadm does not wait for that change with
old kernels. If this condition occurs - it exits and reshape
is not continuing. This patch adds retry of reading sync_complete
with a delay. It gives time for mdmon to change the "delayed" state.

Hi Pawel,
Applied, thanks!
I have to admit I don't like this kind of fixes very much, delaying and
hoping for something to happen in time, but with the APIs we have it's
probably the best we can do.
Cheers,
Jes
