I'm glad to see you've got this working.  Could I ask you to give the
list a bit more information on your set up please ?  As far as I know
you're the only person who is using this.  Which raid modes are you using ?
How heavily are you loading the system ?

The changes I made to the md code were pretty trivial (but untested),
so if it's working at all it should be robust.
