Thanks, I'll proceed with caution...
When 3.19 got out I tried various tests with loopback devices in RAID6
(dd if=/dev/random in the middle of one loopback device guaranteed to
have file data while using the filesystem for example) and didn't manage
to break it but it was arguably simple situations (either missing device
or corrupted data on device, not something behaving really erratically
like failing hardware).
