[lvm-devel] [PATCH 0/1] Only write metadata_copies to if explicitly set or read

This patch only writes the new "metadata_copies" field in the vg metadata
if a new value is explicitly set, or the value was already in the
vg metadata.

Personally, I don't think this patch is necessary, given the fact that
previous versions of LVM don't parse fields they doesn't understand.
However I can add this patch to the previous metadata balance patch set
if others feel it is a requirement.
