+	       *   - high is the row number (0 for A0...Q0, 1 for Q1...P1, etc.),
+	       *   - stripen is the disk number in a row (0 for A0, Q1, P2,
+	       *     1 for B0, A1, Q2, etc.),
+	       *   - off is the logical address to read,
+	       *   - chunk_stripe_length is the size of a stripe (typically 64 KiB),
+	       *   - nstripes is the number of disks in a row,
+	       *   - low is the offset of the data inside a stripe,
+	       *   - stripe_offset is the data offset in an array,
+	       *   - csize is the "potential" data to read; it will be reduced
+	       *     to size if the latter is smaller,
+	       *   - nparities is the number of parities (1 for RAID 5, 2 for
+	       *     RAID 6); used only in RAID 5/6 code.
