>Description:
	If 'raidctl -a' fails to add a partition to a raid device it appears
	to not close the partition, causing any future attempt to add the
	partition (for example after resizing) to fail.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Attempt to add a too-small partition to a raidframe device.
	Resize the partition and try again - it will report

raidctl: ioctl (RAIDFRAME_ADD_HOT_SPARE) failed: Device busy
Apr  3 17:33:51 zelda /netbsd: raidlookup on device: /dev/wd0a failed!

>Fix:
	reboot machine before retrying.
