Since raid0 isn't relly raid (as Redundrand) and can't really do
anything with IO errors on component devices, this behaviour
(returning IO errors to the application) is the only sane way
to go.  It should not fail just like when your disk drive has
a bad sector on it, the whole partition (or whole disk) with
that bad sector isn't "marked as failed".  So what you see is
exactly correct behaviour, in my opinion anyway.
