The LVM patch procedure will actually back out the XFS-specific
changes. So merging LVM into our tree is more than just running make
in the PATCHES directory.

Never. beta7 is broken, and the LVM development tree has alignment
problems that the Sistina folks are working hard on fixing.
So we'll keep what's currently in the XFS tree until LVM 1.0 gets out
and we get a chance to poke a that.
If you've been running LVM for a while and have existing volumes,
stick with the stuff in the XFS tree. If you want to create a new LVM
setup from scratch, I suggest you hold off at least until 1.0 gets
out.
