Okay, it would be good to get it tested on other Linux distros

That can be commited completely independantly, its a bug fix
Seems some of the code tries to be generic, what other kind of
logical volume do you have in mind ?

Can we really just return -1 here for error handling at that point ?
vol->source had had some of its fields filled, but incompletely initialized
this looks dangerous.

those 2 can probably be moved out of the loop

is it really 512 or the block size on the device used ? But 512 is
probably sufficient for LVM to consider it cleared, just wondering ...
Looks fine to me, +1
