Ok, direct question here: why do you want to downgrade? (I considered a downgrade once, but then was able to fix the issues I was having, and just stayed with a patched 8.4.1)
It was suggested because of a problem I had: <http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linuxha/users/78469>The actual issue turned out to be how I configured RRP in corosync. However, given the general advice "stick to 8.3.12 for production systems" I see on this list, I did not upgrade back to 8.4.1 after I fixed the problem.

If you want me to do this, you need to zero out the first part of the device (destroy the content). You should be very sure that you mean it. Operation refused.
