Description of problem:
I/O but deadlock with multiple snapshot,

if there's more then 3 snapshot devices on one source volume.
then trying to put hundreds files to the source volume and sync.
the sync process will go to deep-sleep and can't wake up anymore.
daemon pdflush also goes to sleep..


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC3 kernel and LVM2,  also test with 2.6.13 kernel has the same result

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.create a source volume lv1.
2.create 3 snapshot volumes s1, s2, s3 with source lv1
3.copy all /usr/local files to the lv1

for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6; do
lvcreate -s -L 128 -n s${I} /dev/VG01/lv1
cp -af /etc /mnt/lv1
