Puzzling.  But we can think of some explanations that could tie this in
with the 383/384 problem.

I'd like to see the debug log file/strace for that pvmove --abort and
the full ps output for the process (incl decoded wchan and process state,
nice value, resident memory size & whether its CPU time is static or
increasing) - before and after issuing the 'kill -9' that doesn't work.

We're probably going to need to start sending you patches to instrument
the kernel if we are to work out what's going on here [unless you happen
to have the machine set up for kgdb].

Also, careful use of 'dmsetup' should let us deduce some internal state.

Do you use irc or IM - might speed things up if so?
