2.6.33-rc6 regression: mdadm Unknown cmd 800c0910 (RAID_VERSION)

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

Under 2.6.33-rcX (at least rc5 and rc6, didn't check earlier versions),
I started seeing these messages in dmesg (I do not see these messages on 2.6.32):

I am running 32 bit userspace on 64 bit kernel.

I do not observe any ill effects, possibly because I do not really use raid.

The command in question seems to be RAID_VERSION.

I have verified that reverting
aa98aa31987ad9831711ae71ea2270228ab62532
makes the errors go away.

Didn't yet bother opening a bugzilla for this, let me know if I should.
