G'day all,
I'm not really sure how it's supposed to cope with losing more disks than planned, but filling the syslog with nastiness is not very polite.
Thanks for the bug report. There are actually a few problems relating to resync/recovery when an array (raid 5 or 6) has lost too many devices. This patch should fix them.
I applied your latest array of 9 patches to a vanilla BK kernel and did very, very horrible things to it while it was rebuilding. I can confirm that it does indeed tidy up the resync issues.
