Ah, that was the problem. Now I have "features=0".
I did my silly test again (deleting a LUN that was in use from the
external cabinet) and the system kept working. The errors on the dm-xxx
device propogated back to mdadm which marked it as failed an all was well.
Except that I'm still getting lots of I/O errors:

... endlessly repeating
I was able to stop the errors by
1. removing the failed multipath from the mdadm array
2. using the multipath -f command to flush the deleted disk.
