LP #1465138: Use friendly names for LVM2 devices

Description

**Reported in Launchpad by Daniël van Eeden last update 18-06-2015 08:38:50

This is a feature request.

iostat on Linux has the 'N' option to show the userfriendly name instead of "dm<num>"

Looking at the strace of iostat -N it looks like they resolve the names using ""stat("/dev/mapper/<friendly_name>",...""

Environment

None

Thank you for the feature request. User friendly names for LVM2 devices may be useful in other tools as well.
