Bug Description
When booting a system which has LVM volumes which are MD raid1 targets they will be resync'd in full in the initrd every time you boot. This leads to boot timeouts and enormous boot delays.

If you boot break=bottom you find that LVM is unable to start those volumes, and it is unable to determine their current sync state. This seems to trigger some sort of manual initialisation of the volumes.
Confirmed that this affects both saucy and raring.
