I did have some conversation regarding deliver both drbd8.4 and drbd9, but we
decide to include drbd9 only to avoid the possible confusing.

I did try dual-primary in some early version of drbd9, the basic functionality
looks fine. I suggest you try the dual-primary on drbd9 for live migrations in
test environment first and report any issue you meet. 
And please not to use more than two nodes in dual-primary, i think this
scenario is not ready yet.
