Sorry, I'm not sure if this the root cause of your issue, without 
testing myself. If you have interest to
have a try, you can revert

cd15fb64ee56192760ad5c1e2ad97a65e735b18b (Revert "dm mirror: use all 
available legs on multiple failures")

and try my patch in https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9808897/


The "reverting" fix for the crash issue is in 4.14.0 kernel.
