Hello Linus,

On the system on which bug #32982 has been triggered md0, md1 and md2
have been configured as two-disk RAID1 (mirroring).

I've done my best to trigger enough I/O in order to obtain reliable
bisect results. A difficulty I encountered during bisecting though was
that I encountered unbootable kernels (all skipped revisions).

Bart.
