Hello Omar,

I'm currently chasing a stall of dm-rq + dm-mpath that occurs after the
queues below it have reached the "dead" state. I will look for another
way to obtain the information I need such that we can remove the block
layer queue debugfs information before these queues reach the "dead"
state.

Bart.
