No, it looks like it missed again.  I gather there was a large inflow of
patches for -stable in the 3.11-rc1 merge window and Greg has been
processing
them in batches.  Hopefully in 3.10.4.

The relevant patch is commit 30bc9b53878a9921b02e3 in mainline.

Method to get patch via git and patch kernel:

$ git clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
$ git log |grep 30bc9b53878a9921b02e3
commit 30bc9b53878a9921b02e3b5bc4283ac1c6de102a
$ git show 30bc9b53878a9921b02e3b5bc4283ac1c6de102a > /tmp/a
# patch -p1 < /tmp/a

Hunk #3 succeeded at 1915 (offset -1 lines).

Reboot- tested, success, thanks..!

One follow-up question:
$ cat /sys/block/md1/md/mismatch_cnt
314112
-> On a live RAID-1 (root filesystem) without swap, is it normal to have
such a high mismatch_cnt even after a repair?

First repair:
Fri Jul 26 05:30:47 EDT 2013: The meta-device /dev/md1 has mismatch_cnt
314112 sectors.
Second repair:
Fri Jul 26 05:30:47 EDT 2013: The meta-device /dev/md1 has mismatch_cnt
313600 sectors.

Should I be concerned?
