>Description:
when a raidframe parity rebuild is initiated with 'raidctl -P dev'
on a mirror, the iostat output incorrectly reports that both disks are
reading, and neither are writing:

device  read KB/t    r/s   time     MB/s write KB/t    w/s   time     MB/s
wd4         64.00    168   0.63    10.49       0.00      0   0.63     0.00
wd6         64.00    168   0.59    10.49       0.00      0   0.59     0.00
raid0        0.00      0   0.00     0.00       0.00      0   0.00     0.00

clearly this is wrong ;)

when a reconstruct is initiated with 'raidctl -R component device',
iostat correctly reports that one disk is reading and the other is
writing.
>How-To-Repeat:
have an unclean raidframe mirror and watch iostat output after
/etc/rc.d/raidframeparity runs.
