    md/raid5: don't record new size if resize_stripes fails. · ba7b6c30

    commit 6e9eac2d upstream.
    
    If any memory allocation in resize_stripes fails we will return
    -ENOMEM, but in some cases we update conf->pool_size anyway.
    
    This means that if we try again, the allocations will be assumed
    to be larger than they are, and badness results.
    
    So only update pool_size if there is no error.
    
    This bug was introduced in 2.6.17 and the patch is suitable for
    -stable.
    
    Fixes: ad01c9e3 ("[PATCH] md: Allow stripes to be expanded in preparation for expanding an array")
