The various mdadm mode specific help sections (such as --create --help)
only show options specific to that mode.  There are also general options
available from --help-options.  The -e option applies in multiple modes,
so it should be present in the general --help-options section (but it
isn't, even in the latest mdadm version).  It is, however, present and
explained in the man page for mdadm.
