Bug#669682: lvm2: failed to do fsck on ext3 after shrinking the lvm device

[bowen li]

Package: lvm2
Version: 2.02.66-5
Severity: normal

When I tried to shrink /home and wanted to reuse some space on /root, I tried
lvresize, then fsck -f.  lvresize seemed succeed, but the next step failed.

Then I cannot get the filesystem resized, and need to mount /home manually when
reboot the machine.

below is info after above actions, it seems lvm size not changed, and the size
of lvm not exactly equals size of file system.
