(we've seen sync on last close cause problems when the block device
isn't reachable).

Any other threads that look suspect in output from?:
 echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger

Can you provide your dmsetup table output for the relevant mpath device?
Are you using queue_if_no_path?  Also, AFAIK you don't use
multipath-tools, but if by some chance you do please provide your
multipath.conf.  I'll attempt to reproduce.

But I'm almost tempted to just revert _all_ of 3.15's dm-mpath changes,
and only reintroduce them once they can pass your testing.  I'd like to
avoid that, so Hannes and/or Jun'ichi, it is time for looking at this
seriously.. any help would be very appreciated.  For starters, have you
guys done cable pull tests with > 3.15 ?
