That argument (--offroot actually) is meant to change the command name in the ps(1) output (actually in /proc/$PID/cmdline) only. It does not do anything by itself, it does not change behavour of mdadm/mdmon. The only reason for that change is to let upstart/systemd to know this is a "special" process. It looks like this /run/sendsigs.omit.d/ is about the same thing actually. At any rate we'll keep this argument in mind when mdmon will actually be included into initramfs.
