Can confirm the patch fixes the issue of parallel qmclones failing
occasionally due to a LVM deactivation error, and the extra \n in the
task log from v1 is gone.

One tiny comment inline:

I suppose the parentheses in the post-if condition `if ($@)` are not
strictly necessary, but since ` ... if ($@);` does appear a couple of
times in our existing code, so probably not a problem.
