Hello Mike,

I understand the device shouldn't be suspended after the test given
it is just like the following two tasks running contiguously in the
test:

1) task1
- suspend device mapper
- resume device mapper

2) task2
- updating nr_requests of the device mapper

BTW, it is reported as RH BZ1891486 in which it is easily reproduced,
however, seems device suspended isn't observed.

thanks, 
Ming
