Hi Bart,
could you collect output of 'dmsetup table' on the test machine?
My particular interest is whether pg_init is involved or not
since Hannes's patch made major surgery on pg_init processing.
Also, output of the followings while the problem is happening might help:
dmsetup status
dmsetup info -c
cat /proc/diskstat
multipathd -k"show paths"
multipathd -k"show maps status"
multipathd -k"show maps stats"
