LVM" fails for ext3 file system.

Bug description:
Problem Description
===================================
ubuntu 14.04.4 installation on Firestone baremetal with "Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM" fails when ext3 is chosen as / file system. Below error message is displayed.
????????????????????????? [!!] Partition disks ?????????????????????????
? ?
? Failed to create a file system ?
? The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of LVM VG FR21p01-vg, ?
? LV root failed. ?
? ?
? <Go Back> <Continue> ?
? ?
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Steps to Reproduce
=============================
1. Start netboot installation on Firestone baremetal machine from
http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/trusty-proposed/main/installer-ppc64el/current/images/wily-netboot/
2. During "Partition disks" select
Manual -> Guided partitioning -> Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM
?????????????????????????? [!!] Partition disks ???????????????????????????
? ?
? The installer can guide you through partitioning a disk (using ?
? different standard schemes) or, if you prefer, you can do it ?
? manually. With guided partitioning you will still have a chance later ?
? to review and customise the results. ?
? ?
? If you choose guided partitioning for an entire disk, you will next ?
? be asked which disk should be used. ?
? ?
? Partitioning method: ?
? ?
? Guided - use entire partition, SCSI5 (0,0,0), partition #2 (sdk) ?
? Guided - use the largest continuous free space ? ?
? Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM ? ?
? Guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM ?
? Manual ?
? ?
? <Go Back> ?

3. Select ext3 as root file system and continue.

I see the following errors in the syslog, parted is able to create the partition but mke2fs is unable to create the ext3 file system.
