Well, I don't really know anything about this topic, so I may be
completely off the mark, but dm-raid1.c:mirror_map() does indeed return
EWOULDBLOCK, and EWOULDBLOCK is #define'd to be EAGAIN, so it seems to
me that dm-raid1 does indeed return EAGAIN for "rw == READA" (which I
assume is read-ahead) if the "region is not in-sync":

	/*
	 * If region is not in-sync queue the bio.
	 */
	if (!r || (r == -EWOULDBLOCK)) {
		if (rw == READA)
			return -EWOULDBLOCK;

		queue_bio(ms, bio, rw);
		return DM_MAPIO_SUBMITTED;
	}

Regards,
MF
