I don't know why it's stuck. This has never happened to me :-).
Neil helped someone recently with a similar problem, and suggested
omitting the backup-file. It isn't needed for --grow operations that
increase capacity. I also recall some discussions about systemd vs.
mdmon issues -- if that applies to you.
If omitting the --backup-file fails, I would reboot into a rescue CD
with a recent kernel and mdadm version. I recommend www.sysrescuecd.ord
for such things. Then use mdadm --grow --continue within the rescue
environment.
Phil
