** Version:
Linux version 2.6.26-2-amd64 (Debian 2.6.26-21lenny4) (da...@debian.org) (gcc

Here are a couple of md software RAID fixes from upstream:
1. Would attempt a RAID4 reshape on an array with insufficient devices -
bit of a corner case as not many people use RAID4, but still.
2. Would fail to attempt to scrub an unreadable sector on a
singly-degraded RAID6 (would drop to a doubly-degraded array
instead). This is reasonably likely to be hit on large arrays,
and leads to loss of redundancy (the larger the array, the more
likely this is to result in end-user data-loss).
Both are in Linus-git...
Thanks,
Tim.
