Looking at this patch and at the mdadm manpage, it seems like at least 
part of this text is Sparc specific. Is that correct?

From the manpage:
      The sparc2.2 option will  adjust the superblock of an array what
      was  created on a Sparc machine running a patched 2.2 Linux ker-
      nel.  This kernel got the alignment of part  of  the  superblock
      wrong.   You can use the --examine --sparc2.2 option to mdadm to
      see what effect this would have.

Cheers,
FJP
