Normally, yes this works and it's just as awesome as it sounds.  But
in this particular case, it's utterly broken.  With the resource down
on both nodes, trying to raise it on either basically wigs out and
says "what is this block device?"  Any calls to drbdadm, drbdmeta,
etc, result in a couple dozen "extent beyond end of bitmap" error
messages.  Rolling back to an older snapshot results in the exact same
error messages, which was quite unexpected.

Yes, I was able to create a new DRBD resource and copy my data into
it... but the initial sync for this resource takes 3-4 days... and I
don't want to have to do that all the time.
