This fixes a NULL ptr dereference in md_probe() noted by Helge Hafting. It even gets the things slightly better than they used to be, but late-boot magic in md.c is certainly a mess. Oh, well... It's _ugly_. md_probe() is misused there big way. The minimal fix is to revert the cleanup in md_probe() - replace int unit = *part; with int unit = MINOR(dev); However, that is crap solution. The problem is that md_probe() is called directly with bogus arguments - not only part is NULL (which triggers the oops), but dev (which is supposed to be dev_t value) is actually mdidx(mddev). Cleaner fix follows, but we really need to get the situation with gendisk allocations into the sane shape there. Sigh...
