Hi Zdeneck,
due to how easy is to trigger the bug, it seems a very serious problem 
to me. As the bug report is for internal use only, can you shed some 
light on what causes it and how to avoid?

Specifically can you confirm that, if using an "old-school" mdadm RAID 
device, the bug does not apply?

Thanks.
