The following is (I think) appropriate for 2.4.30. The bug it fixes can result in data corruption in a fairly unusual circumstance (having a 3 drive raid1 array running in degraded mode, and suffering a system crash).
What's unusual? Having a 3 drive raid1 array? It's not unusual for a system to crash after a RAID array gets sent to degraded mode. Happens a lot on a system I administer. Probably caused by a linux-si3112-ide bug which first results in read errors, then (after md has been told to resync) results in a complete system crash...
