Yep, that's what I've done, and I've used the mdadm hook as I have in the
past.

Based on the mkinitcpio wiki page, and the forum post, I'm under the
impression that using mdadm_udev to auto-assemble the arrays is what I
should be using (and is what will be supported in the future).

The mdadm_udev hook does work as advertised, but I don't see how I can
use it when I need a known /dev/mdx device for use in something like a
"cryptdevice=" kernel arg.

Cheers.
