How often do unload the md module while your system is running?  Never?

Then build md directly into your kernel, not as a module.  Problem
solved.  In fact, if you're building a custom kernel for use on a single
machine, remove module support entirely, and build all of your drivers
directly into the kernel.  I've done this for many many years.  It makes
many things much easier.
