[linux-lvm] [RFC] Allow pesize change to adjust free values

[Bastian Blank]

Hi folks

I run again over the problem that vgchange is able to change the size of
a PE, but refuses to recalculate certain free values.

The attached patch seems to work for one PV but it it is not safe for
more. It may change the following things:
- Number of extents in VG.
- Free space of VG.
- Number of extents in PV.
- Size of free PV segment.

Fix for the later: Do PV resize as in this patch. Collect numbers of
removed extents and remove them from the VG.
