This is not a RAID problem - it was a problem with the grsec patches.
They assume that any atomic variable is used as a counter and should not
overflow.  That is not the case with bd_disk->sync_io.  It is expected to
overflow.  So the "PAX: ..." report is a false positive.
Thank you,
i've reported the bug to the grsec guys.
