    If programs like mount use /proc/partitions to find filesystems based on
    labels, then surely we want md devices in there as they often contain
    filesystems.
    
    If the problem is that mount-by-label takes forever with removable media
    then surely the "right" approch is the following patch, and then actually
    set this flag on the "floppy.c" device.  (It is already set for ide-floppy
    and sd devices).
