[RFC][PATCH] never scan a device which is using the error target

[Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>]

A merged snapshot's DM device is made to use the "error" target as part
of lvm's transaction to merge a snapshot.  This snapshot merge use-case
aside, any device using the error target shouldn't be scanned.

NOTE: I'm not using an ignore_suspended_devices() check like other
target checks in device_is_usable() -- its not clear to me what such a
check achieves -- but it clearly doesn't work for my needs seeing as the
default for lvm.conf's ignore_suspended_devices is 0.  Not sure what
commit dd5d9aa6 is up to.. but its devoid of relevant comments.
