Log message:
	Thin disable snapshot creation when pool is over the threshold.
	
	Since snapshot needs to suspend origin - it might lead to pool userspace
	deadlock (as the pool will wait for new space in case it would be overfilled,
	but dmeventd would not be able to resize it, as the lvcreate operation would
	have kept the VG lock.)
	To minimize the risk of such scenario - we prevent to create new snapshot
	in case we are over the threshold - but beware, there is still small timewindow,
	so keep threshold at some reasonable level!
