One of the suggestion earlier in the thread is not mess with takeover
at all.  The rootfs md device is always monitored by a mdmon instance
launched from /run/initramfs.  The only way to update mdmon is to
recreate the initramfs and reboot (which is similar to the experience
of trying to update raidfoo.ko for the rootfs blockdev).
