logical volume activation during bootup shows "Maps lock" errors

this started happening sometime after the creation of two lvm snapshots (including 1 root volume snapshot which, as i have since read, may be an issue) but this has never happened to me before in conjunction with snapshotting.  the following outputs before the system successfully finishes booting:

:: Running Hook [lvm2]
device-mapper: uevent: version 1.0.3
device-mapper: ioctl: 4.15.0-ioctl (2009-04-01) initialised:
Scanning logical volumes...
    Reading all physical volumes.  This may take a while...
    Found volume group "a1vg1" using metadata type lvm2
Activating logical volumes...
    Internal error: Maps lock 14528512 < unlock 14532608
    Internal error: Maps lock 14548992 < unlock 14553088

this is annoying but beyond that seems innocuous enough.  the system is stable.  can anyone tell me what this error means or refer me to the proper documentation?
TIA

I have also these messages. It had gone away, but few days ago it came back ...
