Hmm, but unfortunately I was too quick to say the patch fixed the hang.

It is much more rare, but I can still get a hang.  I just got the
following running vgcreate against an DM mpath (rq-based) device:

INFO: task vgcreate:3517 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

no locks held by vgcreate/3517.

I was then able to reproduce it after reboot and another ~5 attempts
(all against 2.6.36-rc2 + your latest FLUSH+FUA patchset and DM
patches).
