Thanks Jon!
I just wanted to say that I successfully used this patch to get a
multidrive jessie system working.

My system:
/dev/sda1 contains btrfs for /boot
/dev/sda5 is a luks container
/dev/sdb2 -''-
/dev/sdc2 -''-

/ is a btrfs filesystem using the three encrypted containers. It was
created with the jessie installer using sda5_crypt, then after a
successful boot in the newly installed system manually extended to a
multidevice btrfs using
cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/sdb2
cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/sdc2
then editing /etc/crypttab, followed by
btrfs device add /dev/mapper/sdb2_crypt /dev/mapper/sdc2_crypt /

now a update-initramfs with the patch applied resulted in a successfully
booting system. The default jessie version did not.

Paul
