If you use sdb only for data, you don't have need
to use partition on the disk.
Though that's true, keeping 1 partition per disk for each LVM PV
adds additional
'visibility' by tools like fdisk/[cs]fdisk, parted etc. showing
the partition type to be 'Liinux LVM'.
Using the whole disk, blkid or lsblk will provide that
information still,
e.g. 'blkid --match-token TYPE=LVM2_member'.

You shouldn't add different partitions as different PVs. If
it's too late
to fix, it might help to create new LV that uses only one of
the
partitions, e.g. lvcreate -n lv -L size vg /dev/sdb2, and then
copy your
current LV to the new one.
