LVM uses systemwide semaphores for activities such as vgchange -ay

The LVM subsystem uses system-wide semaphores for various activities.

Although the system boots properly without these (apart from the AVC denials
of course), I would assume that they are here to ensure no corruption of any
kind happens in case of concurrent execution / race conditions.

As such, I rather enable it explicitly in the security policy.
