Re: pvresize will cause a meta-data corruption with error message "Error writing device at 4096 length 512"

Only one thing I am confusion all the time.
When read/write error, lvm will call bcache_invalidate_fd & _scan_dev_close to close fd.
So the first successfully read (i.e.: f747), which following f748 finally has fc68's fd.
This will cause f747 metadata overwrite not f748.

the sequence of disk scanning:
```
  scsi-360060e80072a670000302a670000fc69 <=== successful
  scsi-360060e80072a670000302a670000fc68 <=== first failed
  scsi-360060e80072a670000302a670000fc67
  scsi-360060e80072a670000302a670000fc66
  scsi-360060e80072a660000302a660000f74c
  scsi-360060e80072a660000302a660000f74a
  scsi-360060e80072a660000302a660000f749
  scsi-360060e80072a660000302a660000f748 (has fc68 metadata) <=== last failed
  scsi-360060e80072a660000302a660000f747 <=== first successfully read following last failed
```

Hope you understand my saying.
