a750353641 Add support to disable udev checking: LVM_UDEV_DISABLE_CHECKING=1 env. var.
LVM_UDEV_DISABLE_CHECKING=1 applies for /dev/<vgname> content only.
We still need to define DM_UDEV_DISABLE_CHECKING=1 for /dev/mapper content.

7a8fa6aaab Add a [--poll {y|n}] flag to vgchange and lvchange to control whether
the background polldaemon is allowed to start.  It can be used
standalone or in conjunction with --refresh or --available y.

Control over when the background polldaemon starts will be particularly
important for snapshot-merge of a root filesystem.

Dracut will be updated to activate all LVs with: --poll n

The lvm2-monitor initscript will start polling with: --poll y

NOTE: Because we currently have no way of knowing if a background
polldaemon is active for a given LV the following limitations exist and
have been deemed acceptable:
1) it is not possible to stop an active polldaemon; so the lvm2-monitor
   initscript doesn't stop running polldaemon(s)
2) redundant polldaemon instances will be started for all specified LVs
   if vgchange or lvchange are repeatedly used with '--poll y'

6ee7d2aa53 Remove lockingfailed().
We provide a lock type that behaves like no_locking, but is not
  clustered. Moreover, it also forbids any write locks. This magically (and
  consistently) prevents use of clustered VGs, or changing local VGs with
  --ignorelockingfailure. As a bonus, we can remove the special hacks in a few
  places. Of course, people looking for trouble can always set their locking_type
  to 0 to override.

0296197999 Create global is_static() to eliminate from the library init function.
Very simple / crude method of removing 'is_static' from initialization.
Why should we require an application tell us whether it is linked
statically or dynamically to libLVM?  If the application is linked
statically, but libraries exist and dlopen() calls succeed, why
do we care if it's statically linked?
