When a snapshot file readpage reads through to the block device, the reading task increments the block tracked readers count. Upon completion of the async read I/O request of the snapshot page, the tracked readers count is decremented. When a task is COWing a block with non-zero tracked readers count, that task has to wait (in msleep(1) loop), until the block's tracked readers count drops to zero, before the COW operation is completed. After a pending COW operation has started, reader tasks have to wait (again, in msleep(1) loop), until the pending COW operation is completed, so the COWing task cannot be starved by reader tasks. The sleep loop method was copied from LVM snapshot code, which does the same thing to deal with these (rare) races without wait queues.
