Bug#518834: mdadm: I still regulary see these mismatches

Control: tag -1 + wontfix - fixed-upstream

Since this is a kernel issue, and the only issue per se is the mismatch_cnt
itself, not data safety, and since there's nothing mdadm can do here, and
since I don't see how this issue has been "fixed upstream", marking this
(newly reopened) bug as "wontfix".

Ths version graph looks quite fun at this time.
Initially the issue has been reported for 2.5.6-7.
In 3.1.2-1 it were reported to be fixed.
And now in 3.1.4-1 it exists again.
So the _kernel_ issue has been fixed in mdadm between
versions 3.1.2 and 3.1.4, earlier and later versions
are buggy.  So be it.

(Cc'ing to anbe@ because apparently the tagging were done on his request)

Thanks,
