similar to similar errors referenced in BUG

Bug 927437 - "device-mapper: remove ioctl on failed" error when
creating thin pool volume
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927437#c10

but still creates the snapshot LVs

lvs | grep SNAP

Are the "device-mapper: remove ioctl on (254:18) failed" still the
same/similar issue as #927437, new upstream issue, or distro-specific?
