Hello,I have a 8 disk RAID10 array, 6 of the disks are on an LSISAS2008 controller and 2 are on a 82801JI (ICH10 Family) SATA AHCI controller. I upgraded the kernel from 3.17.1 to 3.17.6 when the issue I am having started to occur, but reverting to an older kernel does not resolve the issue.
Restarting the machine causes the array not to start (or be visible in /proc/mdstat or any mention in kernel messages.) If I try to assemble the drives, mdraid complains that 6 out of the 8 disks (coincidentally all on the LSISAS2008 controller) are non-fresh:

Dec 11 21:08:25 kvm kernel: [ 528.567230] md: pers->run() failed .../dev/sda and /dev/sdb are the only drives not on the LSI controller. If I force the assembly with 6 out of the 8 drives the RAID array comes up:
root@kvm:~# mdadm --assemble /dev/md3 /dev/sde /dev/sdf /dev/sdg /dev/sdh /dev/sdi /dev/sdj --run
Then I add the extra drives:
root@kvm:~# mdadm --manage /dev/md3 --add /dev/sda
root@kvm:~# mdadm --manage /dev/md3 --add /dev/sdb
root@kvm:~# mdadm --detail /dev/md3

This occurs every time I restart the machine. Thoughts? I tried
rebuilding the initramfs but this didn't resolve the issue. I'm also
running bcache on this machine, but on top of the mdraid.
