   It needs to be unpartitioned, and also it will complain if there is
  any partition of the LVM type (0x8e) anywhere on the drive.  You can
  easily change that back once the kernel is upgraded and the RAID
  established, though.  Then you can also extend the last partition so it
  uses all the free space (delete/recreate - as long as the new partition
  starts on the same cylinder boundary as the old one this is not
  destructive), and finally use pv/vg/lvextend and/or resize2fs to
  reclaim all the space.
