Hello,
The following script stalls at the 2nd suspend.
It's because bdput() isn't called for the suspended_bdev.
So the inode with bd_mount_sem held is just reused
in the next mapped_device device.
Then dm_suspend will try to freeze_bdev and wait forever.
Attached patch fixes this problem.
------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh -x
map=a
while true; do
dmsetup create $map --notable
dmsetup suspend $map
dmsetup remove $map
done
------------------------------------------------------------

Need to unfreeze and release bdev
otherwise the bdev inode with inconsistent state is reused later
and cause problem.
