You'd almost certainly want to resize the filesystem inside the LV as well,
to minimise confusion.  I can't find a vfat resizer on my system, but
there's ntfsresize here.  Difficulties may arise if there's internal
partition tables in the LV, but I've never played with HVM domains so I
don't know if that sort of thing goes on or if the partition table is
managed at some higher level.
