It seems that the mdadm-raid init script (which triggered this bug
report) is not useful on a udev system (which all systemd systems
are[1]). The file /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid-assembly.rules assembles
the arrays incrementally as devices are known to udev, and so running
a separate assembly step should be superfluous. If this is not true,
then maybe this should be reported upstream, as there is a systemd
service missing.

If the above analysis is correct (please, mdadm maintainers, confirm
if that is so), then the fix for this bug is to mask the init script
as is already done with the mdadm script.
