Something must be keeping this device open (unless there is a bug).

Maybe it's open under a different name? (the /dev/VGNAME/LVNAME path
is just a convenience symlink to /dev/mapper/..., and you should
really look for devices with the same major/minor block device
numbers).

If worse comes to worst - do the Windows and reboot to single user.
