Dmraid is not the only potential user.  Mdadm will also care about
this as I have seen a report that points to a user having what looks
like an HPA issue with an Intel(R) Matrix array.  So, there are two
immediate users for this interface.  Heinz is the right person to poke
for dmraid updates.  I'll handle the mdadm update.

Thanks,
Dan
