I have a lv format with raid1, and one of the pv is fault recently.
I prepare to repair via follow steps:
1. Unplug the fault device and plug new deive
2. Format new device as pv
3. Add new pv to the vg via vgextend (which segfault here)
# vgextend a /dev/sdc2
WARNING: Device for PV ZYO8Gj-cxTa-sEUj-vWjM-H5MA-BWgu-Yeuk27 not found or rejected by a filter.
Couldn't find device with uuid ZYO8Gj-cxTa-sEUj-vWjM-H5MA-BWgu-Yeuk27.

zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) vgextend a /dev/sdc2
4. Repair via lvconvert
Since the segfault, I can not repair the lvm, so I debug into it, I seems dev parameter is a null pointer, which cause the segfault.

I check the file on git, the issue is fixed on the master branch, but not backport to 2.02 stable now (my lvm2 version is 2.02.187).
The commit in master is:

vgextend: check missing device during block size check
Checking the block size when a device is missing could
trigger a segfault.

After apply this patch, I can repair the lvm as normal.
Can we backport this commit to 2.02 branch so we can repair lvm on disk fault?
Thanks.
