Please see the below link for details: https://marc.info/?l=linux-raid&m=153736982015076&w=2 This is caused by that we prefer to use device's previous role which is recorded by saved_raid_disk, but we should respect the new number of conf->raid_disks since it could be changed after device is removed.
