Process B (vgchange -ay -K): a. send DM_LIST_VERSIONS_CMD ioctl; b. pool_target registered; c. table_load->dm_table_add_target->pool_ctr; d. _new_mapping_cache is NULL and panic. Note: 1. process A and process B are two concurrent processes. 2. pool_target can be detected by process B but _new_mapping_cache initialization has not ended. To fix dm-thin-pool, and other targets (cache, multipath, and snapshot) with the same problem, simply dm_register_target() after all resources created during module init (as labelled with __init) are finished.
