	dmeventd/snapshot: dmeventd_snapshot.c 

Log message:
	Fix snapshot monitoring library to not cancel monitoring invalid snapshot.
	
	snapshot DSO unregistered itself when snapshot changed state to invalid.
	
	This can cause a race (and several timeouts), when for example another snapshot
	is added and in the middle of operation (suspend/resume) the monitoring thread
	unregister itself.
	
	Fix it by keeping the snapshot monitored after invalidation - just reset
	threshold to not really print any messages to syslog.
