md: fix bug in handling of new_data_offset 

commit c6563a8c38
    md: add possibility to change data-offset for devices.

introduced a 'new_data_offset' attribute which should normally
be the same as 'data_offset', but can be explicitly set to a different
value to allow a reshape operation to move the data.

Unfortunately when the 'data_offset' is explicitly set through
sysfs, the new_data_offset is not also set, so the two would become
out-of-sync incorrectly.

One result of this is that trying to set the 'size' after the
'data_offset' would fail because it is not permitted to set the size
when the 'data_offset' and 'new_data_offset' are different - as that
can be confusing.
Consequently when mdadm tried to do this while assembling an IMSM
array it would fail.

This bug was introduced in 3.5-rc1.
