[lvm-devel] [PATCH - take 2] Allow mirror log conversion while inactive

[Jonathan Brassow]

Fix for bug 192865.

Allow mirror log conversion (disk -> core) of a non-clustered
mirror while it is inactive.

It should be mentioned that core -> disk was already working.

I also had to turn off support for this for cluster mirrors,
due to the fact that a mirror could be active on another
machine, but processing would continue as though inactive if
that was the state on the executing machine.  (core -> disk
conversions of cluster mirrors was being allowed... but
should not have been.)

So, in summary:
Single Machine mirroring
OPERATION	BEFORE PATCH	AFTER PATCH
inactive c->d	allowed		allowed
inactive d->c	disallowed	allowed (y/n prompt)
active c->d	allowed		allowed
active d->c	allowed		allowed

Cluster mirroring
OPERATION	BEFORE PATCH	AFTER PATCH
inactive c->d	allowed		disallowed (better msg)
inactive d->c	disallowed	disallowed (better msg)
active c->d	allowed		allowed
active d->c	allowed		allowed
