Best thing you can do it report it and hope some maintainer notices and helps
out.   Oh wait, you did that :-)

Looks like:

   commit 7bfec5f35c68121e7b1849f3f4166dd96c8da5b3

is at fault.  It causes md to attempt to add spares into the array more often.
Would I be right in guessing that you have one spare in this array?
If you remove the spare, the messages should stop.

I think I know how I'll fix it but it'll have to wait for tomorrow.  Then
I'll send you a patch to test.

Thanks for the report,
NeilBrown
