Sent this a few days ago, but got no response. Probably because I addressed
this to the wrong persons. So, next try.

With current git tree as of today I get this:

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.19-rc6-g1b9bb3c1 #28
---------------------------------------------
kpartx/945 is trying to acquire lock:
(&md->io_lock){----}, at: [<00000000001f8faa>] dm_request+0x42/0x24c

but task is already holding lock:
(&md->io_lock){----}, at: [<00000000001f8faa>] dm_request+0x42/0x24c

other info that might help us debug this:
1 lock held by kpartx/945:
#0: (&md->io_lock){----}, at: [<00000000001f8faa>] dm_request+0x42/0x24c
