I am having the same issue with some additional information, I have 2 arrays, when one or the other is connected I am getting phantom errors reported on every boot, the boot degraded option gets me past this, but when both array are connected the system is sometimes able to boot and sometimes it fails to mount the arrays.

I have been able to tie both the check failure and the failure to mount degraded to whether the linux_gfx_mode parameter is set to "keep" or "text". It would seem like this has nothing to do with the root issue but I am guessing that the graphics mode is slowing the check down just enough for the drives to report in and pass the test.

Is it possible to disable this check entirely? Beyond the boot degraded option which itself can fail. My system typically sits in a room no keyboard, monitor or anything, if the boot degraded option worked that would be fine, but it doesn't so all this check can do is cause a problem in this scenario.
