Public bug reported:
$ sudo ceph-disk-prepare --fs-type xfs --zap-disk /dev/vdb
Caution: invalid backup GPT header, but valid main header; regenerating
backup header from main header.
Warning! Main and backup partition tables differ! Use the 'c' and 'e' options
on the recovery & transformation menu to examine the two tables.
Warning! One or more CRCs don't match. You should repair the disk!
****************************************************************************
Caution: Found protective or hybrid MBR and corrupt GPT. Using GPT, but disk
verification and recovery are STRONGLY recommended.
****************************************************************************
Warning: The kernel is still using the old partition table.
The new table will be used at the next reboot.
GPT data structures destroyed! You may now partition the disk using fdisk or
other utilities.

mkfs.xfs: cannot open /dev/vdb1: Device or resource busy
ceph-disk: Error: Command '['/sbin/mkfs', '-t', 'xfs', '-f', '-i', 'size=2048',

I can reproduce this consistently across ceph nodes; also impacts on the
way we use swift for storage as well.
