You're not the only one hitting this.  My symptoms seam identicle to 
yours.

What do you notice about the order of messages in relationship to how 
they were ordered pre 2.4.21-pre4-ac2?  Before I would see all the 
shutdown messages then "flushing ide" then the reboot or power down 
message.  Now the reboot or power down message shows up before or 
durring the md raid device shutdown.  Then I get the flushing ide 
mesasage and it dies part way through.
