Thanks for finding the root cause and making a patch that corrects the offset
addresses for multiple disks!

Just wondering, what is the current status of the patchset? Is there anything
that I can do to help?

I can help review the patch and help test the patches anytime. Do you need help
with making a patch to calculate the stripe size for near and far layouts?

Let me know how you are going with this patchset, and if there is anything I
can do for you.

Thanks,
Matthew
