The async writes have been added to md recently my Paul too.

drbd will continue correctly; it'll detach the local drive and run all
IO over the network. Also, the direction of the sync has been decoupled
from the primary/secondary status for a while, and the drbd-0.8
(development branch) is almost 90% there to allow both nodes IO access
to the device.

(I think; maybe it's also already done. It's been a while since I tried
playing with that particular version.)
