I think you've got it.
Chris: Can you show us the output of pvdisplay --maps /dev/sda5,
please?
If you're lucky, the missing bit of the PV is entirely unmapped,
and it can be shrunk to fit the partition. If not, you've probably
lost some data.

I think it should be possible simply to resize the PV down to the
partition size.
