I've reproduced the problem a few times and the various different failures are suggesting some sort of kernel memory corruption when handling a a RAID that is in an inconsistent state. Below are two partial logs show a null pointer dereference (looks like execution jumped into the weeds) and another kernel BUG_ON, this time in sched.c.
