[Linux-HA] Force quorum...

Hi again.

Just tried forcing my node into acquiring quorum with cibadmin -f and some 
other combinations but it almost always showed me the usage msg without any 
clue what went wrong.

After taking a look into the source code, I am convinced this command has no 
affect at all:

When -f is passed to cibadmin, cib_quorum_override is set in command_options: 

                       case 'f':
                                command_options |= cib_quorum_override;
                                break;

Just a bit later long before command_options even gets evaluated, cib_action 
is checked and if not explicitly set, the usage msg gets displayed and the 
program exists (in usage()):

        if(cib_action == NULL) {
                usage(crm_system_name, cib_operation);
        }

So either this is intended and one has to provide more than just -f, so a 
proper cib_action gets set (which I tried without any luck) or this is a bug.

Thanks for taking the time... again. :-)

Best regards,
Matthias Dahl
