Sure, but...

Until cgd registers a similar shutdown hook, and then some system has
both cgd-on-raid and raid-on-cgd (not necessarily the same raid/cgd
instances).  Something that works per-driver with a single order of
hook execution *can't* get that right; it has to be either per-instance
or iterative.
