Change subject: lvm: Ensure active LVs are refreshed before use.
......................................................................


Patch Set 5:

"2) "erroneous activation (e.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1009812 use case)"
We cannot assert that the volume wasn't altered or is not still in use
(by the same or other reason) by other hosts. In such case refresh will not
help. The cause should be fixed and not mitigated. Are we aware of other
causes but the current BZ?"

If the volume is in use by some other host which is altering it then indeed 
there is nothing to do about it, but that is not the scenario nor is relevant 
to anything here.

In case the LV was erroneously activated in the past on *this* host then *not* 
refreshing it can and will lead to corruption while refresh will avoid that at 
the cost of the possible performance hit you are referring to.
corruption vs. perf hit... hmmm.  The answer is clear cut to me.
This is still +2
