Re: 2.6.18.1, ext3: attempt to access beyond end of device

[Eli Stair <estair@ilm.com>]

You might want to also address the MD(ADM) list 
(linux-raid@vger.kernel.org) with this.  I was seeing similar issues 
with raid10 prior to reporting several other issues, which are now fixed 
in 2.5.5 of mdadm.  I haven't seen this error since.

Try replicating it after re-creating the array with mdadm-2.5.5, and 
showing the mdadm -D /dev/md{n} && mdadm /dev/md{n} -E /dev/$member_dev

Cheers,
