if /dev/sdaX and /dev/sdbX aren't part of a dmraid array kernel will not remove
them.

It is already triggered:
http://git.debian.org/?p=users/derevko-guest/dmraid.git;a=blob;f=debian/dmraid.postrm

> 2) add for instance a boot option "nodmraid" which can be probed for
in dmraid-activate

And how this should fix this issue?
