With my reproducer, the workaround at step 6 works.

I presume you are referring to the line:
"Copying bitmap of peer node_id=0"
The reason that node ID 0 appears here is that DRBD stores a bitmap of
the blocks that have changed since it was first brought up. This is
the "day0" bitmap. This is stored in all unused bitmap slots. All
unused node IDs point to one of these bitmaps. In this case, node ID 0
is unused. So this line means that it is using the day0 bitmap here.
This is unexpected, as mentioned in my previous reply.
