To all interested,

I tested the --remove option on an entire MD device it immediatly
returned to the command prompt with no output/action whatsoever.
The MD was still active and runnning. So I can confirm it does nothing
and the instruction on the mentioned page are incorrect.

Tested with mdadm v3.1.4

Kind regards,
Caspar
