Log message:
	Do not reset position in metadata ring buffer on vgrename and vgcfgrestore.
	
	We should write metadata into next position in the ring buffer while calling
	vgrename and vgcfgrestore. At this code level (_vg_write_raw), we were not able
	to determine if this is a rename or not. If yes, then accompanying VG structure
	passed here has a new name set, not the old one.
	
	When looking for a location where to put metadata next, we were given a NULL
	value because of failed VG name comparison (in _find_vg_rlocn) between the
	name in existing metadata and metadata we're just about to write.
	
	This resets the position in the ring buffer, overwriting any existing metadata
	(and also incorrectly updates the cache to "orphan" afterwards).
	
	This patch just adds old_name item in struct volume_group that we can check and use
	if necessary and detect renames at lower layers as well.
	
	The same applies for vgcfgrestore, but here we're using a special value of
	old_name, an empty string, to disable the check with existing metadata totally.

 Version 2.02.63 -  
 ================================
+  Do not reset position in metadata ring buffer on vgrename and vgcfgrestore.
   Allow VGs with active LVs to be renamed.
   Use UUIDs instead of names while processing event handlers.
   Only pass visible LVs to tools in cmdline VG name/tag expansions without -a.
