Right.

I think that with some RAID formats there is no header on the physical
disks, so the kernel can find partition tables on physical disk devices
as well as on the RAID device, and there may be multiple devices
matching a UUID.  If this happens, selection by UUID is effectively
random.

The 'Device or resource busy' error message suggests that we tried to
mount a physical disk device that's already part of a RAID device.  The
kernel prevents it from being used for both purposes at once (which is
just as well, because the RAID would be corrupted otherwise).
