kernel autodetection of md arrays is almost always a bad idea,
it is far better to use mdadm in user space for that.

no, it is an user space task, there is no reason to
burden the kernel with this.

(the md=....) commandline, but i dont' feel the need to implement
a device mapper kernel commandline to achieve this.
