My gut feeling is that if it can theoretically happen for all raid modes, it should be fixed for all raid modes. What happens if code changes elsewhere and suddenly it really does happen for say raid-5? On the other hand, if fixing it in md.c only gets tested for raid-0, how do we know it will actually work for other raids if they do suddenly start falling through. Academic purity versus engineering practicality :-) Cheers, Wol
