The dmraid change isn't really appropriate since it only needs to be run for local boots, which is why it was in local-top. Also the script really should go away entirely since udev runs dmraid. It seems having it in both places creates a race condition to see which one activates the array first.

We already have udev rules to choose which device to point the by-uuid link to, it seems to me that lvm and dmraid both should be modified to be told by udev which device to scan, rather than enumerating over every /dev/xxxx* it finds. That way when udev decides the device belongs to dmraid, it won't ask lvm to scan it to see if it contains a pv, and therefore, lvm won't try to use it.
