Hello :) when rebooting my gentoo system with mdadm-2.2, I get the following error message on shutdown: mdadm: fail to stop array /dev/md0: Device or resource busy md0 is my root partition /dev/md0 is my root parition. That is no problem with a real reboot or shutdown. But with a "kexec reboot" the rebooted kernel hangs with several dma and irq errors. The problem does not exist in version mdadm-2.1 I am not sure if this is the right place for reporting this issue..
