I also like Zdenek's "usable", which seems to be closer to what we mean.
In addition to the reporting field can could be a new letter in the 9th lv
attr field.  (We'd have to figure out the priority of this letter vs the
others.)

Limit this to what lvm knows already.  The field will represent whether
lvm believes the uppser layer can successfully do io to the entire LV.
