Hello !
My bad. This is one of the kernels that had modified the IO subsystem to
replace the io_request_lock with a finer grained host_lock and queue_lock.
I also noticed that the hang occurs when the settings of bdflush are the
following:
root@dyn-10-123-130-235 vm]# cat bdflush
30 50 32 100 50 300 60 0 0
Thanks
