Hi @ddstreet, thanks for the last upload and all the effort in this case!

So, we had a situation in which LP #1850540 (the raid0 layout issue) caused the mdadm package to stuck blocked in -proposed due to issues with kernel. They're still figuring that out, so we (Dann, Stephan, from kernel, and I) manage to reach a consensus: let's focus on this LP for now, while the kernel raid0 layout patches are worked.

So, next steps here would be:
(a) Drop the current mdadm packages from proposed, for all releases;
(b) Upload this one and get it released to -proposed;
(c) Test -proposed version and get this package released, in order to free the queue for the raid0 layout issue fixes.

I'm re-uploading here the debdiffs for Bionic and Eoan (Disco won't get fixed, it's going to be EOL'ed next week). These debdiffs are based on bionic-updates / eoan-release versions of mdadm (the previous debdiffs were based on Dann's -proposed version).

Please let me know in case you have any questions or concerns.
Cheers,

Guilherme
