The problem was that the kernel would only answer "GET_DISK_INFO" requests for disks numbered less than "nr_disks", but nr_disks might be less than the number of the highest numbered disk. The fix was to get it to answer any request for a disk numbered up to MD_SB_DISKS (or whatever it is) if that disc actually existed.
