I've been deliberately monitoring the kernel via the git web 
interfaces, and I can't yet see the patch committed that supposedly 
fixed this.  (Please correct me if it was actually committed.)
      

Somebody told it was fixed in 2.6.32. Have you checked that one?
    

As 2.6.32 doesn't exist yet, that should be "will be fixed".

If the problem if what I think it is, then it should be fixed by 
  http://neil.brown.name/git?p=md;a=commitdiff;h=1d9d52416c0445019ccc1f0fddb9a227456eb61b

which I have not yet sent to Linus.

Yes, thanks for this confirmation.  I'll watch for it in 2.6.32.

Thanks,

Lee.
