If you want a few seconds and try grabbing cat /proc/29594/stack
again, what does the stack trace stay consistent as above?

Also, if you have iostat installed (usually part of the sysstat
package), does "iostat 1" show any I/O activity on the md device?
What about the underying block dvices used by the md device?  If the
md device is attached to HDD's where you can see the activity light,
can you see (or hear) any disk activity?

This sure seems like either the I/O driver isn't processing requests,
or some kind of hang in the md layer....
