Hello Mike,

The behavior I see with kernel v4.5-rc3 is different of what I saw with
v4.5-rc1 but it still is not the behavior I expect. The call trace that
was triggered this morning on my test setup can be found below. I assume
the information below means that the tio->ti->type is NULL in dm_done() ?

Bart.
