[Bug 802626] Re: vgchange may deadlock in initramfs when VG present that's not used for rootfs

[Steve Langasek]

my understanding is that the udev upload comprises a complete fix, and
no further changes are needed to lvm2.

Bug description:
  The system is now unable to boot.
  I had to boot on previous kernel 3.0.0.
  Symptoms are boot freezes. When debugging, issuing a vgscan works ok.
  doing the vgchange -a y just hangs. I need to reboot the system afterwards.
