May I belatedly say that this is sort-of a kernel issue, since
/proc/partitions reflects invalid data? Perhaps a boot option like
nopart=sda,sdb or similar would be in order?
i would move partition detection code to user space completely, so it
could be ran selectively on the drives that do happen to have a patition
table.
a compromise could be having mdadm (or the script that starts mdadm at
boot time, issue an ioctl(fd,BLKPG,...) to make kernel forget about any
eventual partition table it might have misdetected
