[Bug 2100625] Re: [SRU] ceph 17.2.9

[Matthew Ruffell]

Okay, Dan Hill and I decided this morning that this particular point release
has gotten a bit too controversial, and that point releases should really be
as uncontroversial as possible, so they are easier to produce and maintain in
the future.

So for this current SRU, we will keep it as uncontroversial as possible, and
just do the 17.2.9 point release and nothing more. So we will keep the existing
patch-out-exporter.patch as is.

In a future SRU, we will go about enabling ceph-exporter and getting it packaged
up and tested properly. I filed bug 2124228 to keep track of this, and we can
start work as soon as this SRU is released.

I will likely upload the new 17.2.9 SRU tonight, just waiting on builds on all
architectures in both -updates and -proposed to finish.

Notes:
d/p/fix-lvm-devices.patch is https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/63490 upstream.
It has been backported to 17.2.8 by 
https://github.com/ceph/ceph/commit/9e8372a8c50b00d0fe84003a6a9477c889391bd4
and is no longer needed to be carried.

The second hunk of fix-lvm-devices.patch is not related to the original issue,
and fixes a FTBFS. I moved it to a new file to make this clear.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  This release fixes several bugs. We would like to make sure all of our users have access to these improvements.

  The update contains the following package updates:

     * ceph 17.2.9
     * Race condition prevention when printing Inode in ll_sync_inode (by Ponnuvel Palaniyappan)

  [Test Case]
  The following SRU process was followed:

  https://documentation.ubuntu.com/sru/en/latest/reference/exception-
  OpenStack-Updates/

  In order to avoid regression of existing users, the OpenStack team
  will run their continuous integration test against the packages that
  are in -proposed. A successful run of all available tests will be
  required before the proposed packages can be let into -updates.

  The OpenStack team will be in charge of attaching the output summary
  of the executed tests. The OpenStack team members will not mark
  ‘verification-done’ until this has happened.

  [Regression Potential]
  In order to mitigate the regression potential, the results of the aforementioned tests will be attached to this bug.
