I will send the v2 patch very soon.
the v2 patch only for lvdisplay cmd. if my code acceptable, I plan update lvs
cmd in v3, add a new letter (N)ot_available in bit 9 (Volume Health).

I have a little confused with your comments.
These 2 lines are same as _lv_mark_if_partial_single() code:
```
            if (seg_type(lvseg, s) == AREA_PV) {
                if (is_missing_pv(seg_pv(lvseg, s))) {
```
why _lv_mark_if_partial_single can use these 2 lines?
please wait for the v2 patch, I changed some code logic, set the NOT_AVAIL_LV in
_lv_mark_if_partial_single().
