      Description of problem:
      The active storage controller is executing the bellow command which is causing the system to enter in a kernel panic state and reboot:

      Executing command: /sbin/dmsetup message /dev/mapper/CBS_POOL 0 release_metadata_snap

      How reproducible:
      Everytime command is ran

      Steps to Reproduce:
      In order to reproduce this behavior, we manually executed the command and indeed, in a very few minutes the system reaches the kernel panic state and reboots:

      $ dmsetup message /dev/mapper/CBS_POOL 0 "release_metadata_snap"
      Kernel panic - not syncing: hung_task: blocked tasks

      As for the reserve operation, this is just failing, see the below output:

      $ dmsetup message /dev/mapper/CBS_POOL 0 "reserve_metadata_snap"
      device-mapper: message ioctl on CBS_POOL failed: Device or resource busy
      Command failed
