That code is messy, and it should be cleaned - the lock_vg() name is misleading
(it should be called pre_lock_vg(), it should take pre-parsed flags and not parse
it itself from client struct - the same like lock_lv etc)

So if you think cleaning one variable help anything, better do it than spent another
week discussing it :-)
