Yes, I also wondered if setting curr_resync to MaxSector could be changed...
but not understanding why it's done, it seemed safer to just catch this in
status_resync.
we use it to set rdev->recovery_offset, but that doesn't mean we must set it to
MaxSector though. I applied the patch as-is, it's not a big issue.

Thanks,

Actually, it is recovery :).

There is a small window near the end of md_do_sync where mddev->curr_resync
can be equal to MaxSector.
I am curious about the purpose of set it to MaxSector, maybe the setting
is not
necessary.

If status_resync is called during this window, the resulting /proc/mdstat
output contains a HUGE number of = signs due to the very large curr_resync:

Personalities : [raid1]
md123 : active raid1 sdd3[2] sdb3[0]
204736 blocks super 1.0 [2/1] [U_]
[=====================================================================

finish=0.2min speed=12796K/sec
bitmap: 0/1 pages [0KB], 65536KB chunk

Modify status_resync to ensure the resync variable doesn't exceed
the array's max_sectors.
