I'm not sure the upgrade method matters, does it? In both cases I think
it was changes to dracut and the way raid was assembled (perhaps moving
from automatically in the kernel to doing it in userspace, or vice
versa).

Nono, this *isn't* a custom layout. It's a fairly standard RAID setup.
But if we change the defaults, then I suppose that retrospectively
*makes* it a "custom layout"... at least in the sense that we can
reasonably expect it to keep breaking every release or two :(
