I checked out  bug 1404143  and can confirm that was the same error I
got.  I just for some reason on two systems only got it on the RAID and
not on the freestanding partiitions.

Title:
  encrypted mdadam raid cannot be unlocked with udev 218

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Running Ubuntu vivid (alpha) with systemd. Bug same in my customized
  dracut initramfs , Ubuntu's initramfs-tools initramfs, or post boot
  from the command line. Udev package is udev_218-2ubuntu3_amd64.deb and
  its related udev packages. Using udev 217 or earlier cryptsetup opens
  my 3 disk mdadm raid volume at boot along with two cryptsetup volumes
  on SDD partitions.  Using udev 218 the single device encrypted
  partitions all open fine, but the RAID volume does not,  instead
  generating  "could not remove ioctl" errors listing further details
  "device temporary-cryptsetup-(various numbers)." It would try five
  times and give up. The RAID itself does comes up, trying to open it
  from the command line gave me the errors reported above.

  A Startpage search said this kind of thing normally come from issues
  with udev rules.  The udev rules for mdadm are not included with the
  udev packages, I am guessing they are in the mdadm packages so they
  were not changed by this update.

  Rolling back to udev 217 fixed this and allowed the mdadm raid volume
  to unlock normally. On this machine reproduction is simple: update to
  udev 218, make a new initramfs and try to reboot. The "cryptraid"
  volume hosted on the 3 disk raid will not unlock and cannot be
  unlocked post boot-not even be removing the hard drives and putting
  them back in their hotswap trays.

  Hardware is AMD FX 8120/Radeon HD 6750, motherboard uses FX 990
  chipset. The three 2 TB drives are partitioned, the mdadm volume is
  assembled from the 3 partitions, the cryptsetup volume hosted on it is
  not partitioned, contains a single large (6TB) ext4 filesystem.
