[lvm-devel] [PATCH] restore the "removemissing" behaviour of lvconvert --repair --use-policies

When we are doing lvconvert --repair --use-policies, which is the
combination that is used in dmeventd, at the end of the repair, we clean
up any bad (missing) PVs from the VG that have become empty. In common
cases, this leads to a clean and consistent VG after a repair, with no
missing PVs in it.

This feature has regressed with the mirroredlog patches for lvconvert.

I conjecture, that this patch should fix Corey's RHBZ 606528 (it is not
entirely clear what exactly happened there yet, but I believe this could
definitely explain the behaviour).

Yours,
   Petr.
