Mdadm expects that setting drive as faulty will fail with -EBUSY only if this operation will cause RAID to be failed. If this happens, it will try to stop the array. Currently -EBUSY might also be returned if rdev is in the middle of the removal process - for example there is a race with mdmon that already requested the drive to be failed/removed. If rdev does not contain mddev, return -ENODEV instead, so the caller can distinguish between those two cases and behave accordingly.

Hi, Could you look into this patch? Thanks Pawel
