Neither partman-md nor mdcfg currently "locks" any underlying devices.
I have quickly reviewed all bug reports against these two packages and
no bugs seem to mention this issue. Either the relevant installation
reports were not sorted correctly or we can assume that it is a pretty
minor issue and that our users did work around it themselves.
I acknowledge that it is a real issue that should be fixed, but it might
be minor compared to the various issues reported on RAID+crypto.
