Is this true? Are there compatibility issues using different i/o

I'd actually like to raise this one level further:

In the case of (drives)->md->dm(crypto)->lvm->fs, how do the schedulers, 
readahead settings, blocksizes, barriers etc interact thru all these 
layers? Is block caching done on all layers? Is readahead done on all 
layers?
