Follow-up Comment #1, bug #32931 (project grub):

I suppose that you didn't follow the discussion on LVM writing. Basically the
problem is safety: any bug in LVM writing code would result in disk
corruption. Your patch actually perfectly illustrates one of the points which
were discussed: in case of multiple copies (e.g. stripped LVM) only one is
needed for read but you need to update all of them when you write. Your patch
will surely corrupt any mirrored LVM. I recommend to discuss the approach on
address@hidden before proceding.
