Hi all,

   Here's an interesting issue. When we shutdown the cluster stack
cleanly, all lvm commands will
fail to grab the global lock. Like this:
--->8----
sys3:~ # vgscan
  cluster request failed: Host is down
  Unable to obtain global lock.
---8<----
   I went through the code history a bit. It seems to be caused by
e65ffb8e, which is for gulm only I think.

  clvmd-corosync.c is copied over from clvmd-openais.c, then from clvmd-gulm.c.
I'd suggest to remove this patch for both clvmd-corosync and clvmd-gulm.

  Any comments ?
  Thanks.
