Ok.
I had a crazy idea that 2 devices down in a RAID5 was an MD bug.

I didn't expect MD to kick that last disk - I would have thought that
it would just pass on the read error in that situation.  If you've got
the time to explain I'd like to be wiser - why not?

Thanks a tera!

(Probably no corruption since I was strictly reading from the array
when the disks were kicked.)
