At the very least, there should be a caveat in the 16.04 upgrade notes to state that any cached lvm volumes should have the caches removed before the upgrade.

(I use some SSD to cache old hard drives). My LVM setup was created with Linux Mint Debian Edition - Betsy release. The system cannot mount these cached volumes due to the following error reported by 'pvs': ubuntu-mate@ubuntu-mate:~$ sudo pvs LV CacheArchive has invalid cache's feature flag. LV CacheArchive is missing cache policy name. Internal error: LV segments corrupted in CacheArchive. LV CacheArchive has invalid cache's feature flag. LV CacheArchive is missing cache policy name.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1282188. I'll annotate this bug with the LVM version from my existing Debian based configuration in a few minutes. This is a show-stopper for me because I use LVM caching on both of my PCs. It's a great way to marry a 256 GB SSD with a 2 TB hard drive. I keep the OS and some key partitions on the SSD and then use the rest of the SSD to cache the hard drive.
