Yes, Neil had a whoops and a dud patch spent a day in mainline.
Hopefully the below revert (from mainline) will fix it.

Revert "md: improve partition detection in md array"
This reverts commit 5b479c91da90eef605f851508744bfe8269591a0.
Quoth Neil Brown:
"It causes an oops when auto-detecting raid arrays, and it doesn't
seem easy to fix.
The array may not be 'open' when do_md_run is called, so
bdev->bd_disk might be NULL, so bd_set_size can oops.
This whole approach of opening an md device before it has been
assembled just seems to get more and more painful. I think I'm going
to have to come up with something clever to provide both backward
comparability with usage expectation, and sane integration into the
rest of the kernel."
