2.2.2-ac7 and megaraid

I have been using 2.2.2-ac1 with a megaraid 428 with no problems.

I tried to bring up 2.2.2-ac7 and hit these problems:

Only one (of 3) logical devices is recognized on boot. You see this
when fsck complains it can't find devices.

All (most?) partions claim to be unmounted uncleanly (even ones not on
the megaraid).

The system is a 4 processor Xeon with 2Gb. The boot disk is on a
Adaptec 2940UW controller. The raid system has 6 disk arranged as 3 two
disk RAID-0.

I backed off to the -ac1 kernel. All disks are found and the partitions
show up as clean.

The details are a little fuzzy. I can get exact boot up info if that
helps. The bad boots are in the log, because it rebooted due to the
fsck errors. I would have to get serial console working fully.
