In lvm2 version 2.02.105 lvconvert gained a --splitsnapshot option to allow people to wipe snapshot content before releasing the extents for reallocation.
--splitsnapshot Separates SnapshotLogicalVolume from its origin. The volume that is split off contains the chunks that differ from the ori- gin along with the metadata describing them. This volume can be wiped and then destroyed with lvremove. The inverse of --snap- shot.
