Yes, thanks for the report. I realize that sda1 adn sdb1 is created
while raid open sda and sdb excl, and I think this problem should exist
before this patchset.

And I verify this with following test:

1) mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l 1 -n 2 /dev/sda /dev/sdb -e 1.0
2) sgdisk -n 0:0:+100MiB /dev/md0
3) mdadm -S /dev/md0
# scan partitions of sda
4) blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sda

Then sda1 is created.

I'm not sure how to fix this yet????

Thanks,
Kuai
