Description of problem:
Leapp crashes when there are too many LV partitions.
Customer had at least 55 partitions which were not useful for the IPU.
Commenting them out from fstab allows to go ahead.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
leapp-upgrade-el7toel8-0.17.0-1.el7_9.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1/ create a sparse file, it will be used as a temporary block device (here of 20GB)

1. dd if=/dev/zero of=/root/block seek=40M count=1

2/ create 100 LV of 100MB under the VG "test".

1. losetup /dev/loop0 /root/block
2. pvcreate /dev/loop0
3. vgcreate test /dev/loop0
4. for i in $(seq 1 100); do lvcreate -L 100M -n lv$i test; done
5. vgchange -ay test

3/ format them (here as ext3 like the customer, but I guess other fstype give the same symptoms)

1. for i in $(seq 1 100); do mkfs.ext3 -F /dev/test/lv$i; done
2. for i in $(seq 1 100); do mkdir /srv/fs$i; done
3. for i in $(seq 1 100); do echo "/dev/test/lv$i /srv/fs$i ext3 defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab; done
4. mount -a

4/ run a `leapp preupgrade`

=========================================================================================================
Actor target_userspace_creator unexpectedly terminated with exit code: 1 - Please check the above details

Expected results:
No crash.
Maybe an inhibitor telling to comment out partitions which are definitely not required during the IPU?
(that would also help in the XFS case where many ext4 images are created to circumvent an old xfs issue)

Additional info:
After the crash, partitions in /var/lib/leapp/scratch are still there.

To clean up the system, lazy-unmount those overlays:

1. for mp in `mount | awk '/leapp.scratch/ {print $1}

   '`; do umount -vl $mp; done

2. rm -rf /var/lib/leapp/*
