Neil,

Someone had submitted a patch to correct part of the problem I was 
mentioning earlier, while it may be trivial, do you and others think it 
would be worthwhile to print "raid6" when it is a raid6 rather than 
printing raid5 for most messages in the kernel?

Shouldn't the kernel be accurate when detecting arrays as far as 
informational purposes go?

Justin.

Alternatively, if the same code is used for all of RAID 4/5/6, perhaps 
the simplest thing would be for the messages just to say "raid456".

Cheers,

John.
