Title:
  Hanging I/O causes multipath not to work properly

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After switching a few times between paths I noticed that device-mapper
  started logging the following messages:

  [ 2478.345027] device-mapper: table: 251:0: multipath: error getting device
  [ 2478.346588] device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table

  And in the output of echo w >/proc/sysrq-trigger I noticed that
  several I/O threads were hanging:

  The above call stack was triggered by running a fio data integrity
  test on a filesystem on top of a dm device while switching over paths.
