Subject: [PATCH] vgcreate/vgextend: restrict PVs with mixed block sizes
Avoid having PVs with different logical block sizes in the same VG.
This prevents LVs from having mixed block sizes, which can produce
file system errors.
The new config setting devices/allow_mixed_block_sizes (default 0)
can be changed to 1 to return to the unrestricted mode.
