OK, I've been there, done that.
Tried both with UFS + an SF_IOERROR flag and with a hacked reiserfs, where
reading from regular files always fails.
Original md code does choke on EIO returned.
After I applied my first patch (md-doubleclose-1.diff), all worked fine, both
in the case when reading returns error and when reading works normally.
