Wait, the error is somewhere else:

  sed -i -re 's,^PREREQ=\"md\"$,PREREQ=\"mdadm\"$,' \
    /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/lvm

See that second '$' ?

Can you confirm that if you edit
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/lvm and make sure the
line reads

  PREREQS="mdadm"

and not

  PREREQS="mdadm"$

that it now properly works?
