During a recovery of reshape the early part of some devices might be
in-sync while the later parts are not.
We we know we are looking at an early part it is good to treat that
part as in-sync for stripe calculations.

This is particularly important for a reshape which suffers device
failure.  Treating the data as in-sync can mean the difference between
data-safety and data-loss.
