just to have record about what we talked off-list yesterday:

i didn't mean 'pre-bluestore' osds, but bluestore osds that don't use lvm
iow. created with ceph-disk instead of ceph-volume (from luminous/pve5)

also imho we don't have to show any useful infos there (if we even had some)
but maybe show a little less 'scary' warning like
'cannot show lvm info for osd's created before pve 6/ceph nautilus' or similar
