[linux-lvm] bug: raid1 sub-devices are scanned too

[Erkki Seppala]

Hello, thanks for the reply. 

The problem seems to have disappeared after a reboot, or then I've
tried the vgscan -f -stuff - vgscan now just seemed to work OK. I
could've sworn I tried that vgscan -f before without too much success,
but, all in all, I imagine it's not worth hunting a bug before one can
find an easily repeatible situation.

In the original situation vgscan -f was of no help, only the
export/import-trick (and a reboot) allowed me to access the mirror-vg.
