It looks like the above fixes were incorporated into 
v2_02_91
and 
v2_02_96 and newer.

That means I will also have to port this fix to quantal.

** Changed in: lvm2 (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Changed in: lvm2 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => In Progress

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * Potential filesystem corruption
+ 
+  * The above is remedied by backporting a fix from upstream lvm2 that
+ allows fsadm to return 3 on attempts to check a mounted filesystem. This
+ allows lvextend and lvresize to proceed without a fsck when the
+ filesystem is mounted.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ 1. Run lvextend -L +...G -r <LV block device>
+ 2. Obtain a message saying:
+ WARNING!!! The filesystem is mounted. If you continue you ***WILL***
+ cause ***SEVERE*** filesystem damage.
+ 
+ Do you really want to continue<n>?
+ 
+ 3. Reply no, and lvextend or lvresize proceed anyway, freaking out any user 
who does not recognize the above message as having come from fsck.
+ 4. Reply yes, and possibly corrupt your filesystem.
+ 
+ 
+ [Regression Potential] 
+ 
+  * There is regression potential for scripts that depend on fsadm return
+ values.  I did search for other references to "fsadm" within the lvm2
+ package, but found none.
+ 
+  * Possible regressions may manifest themselves as other filesystem or
+ lvm2 tools failing.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+  
+  * All 4 patches that were backported for this fix exist upstreams
+  * Anticipate questions from users, SRU, +1 maintenance, security teams and 
the Technical Board
+  * and address these questions in advance
+ 
+ 
  Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Run lvextend -L +...G -r <LV block device>
  2. Obtain a message saying:
  WARNING!!! The filesystem is mounted. If you continue you ***WILL***
  cause ***SEVERE*** filesystem damage.
  
  Do you really want to continue<n>?
  
  3. Reply no, and lvextend or lvresize proceed anyway, freaking out any user
