[dm-devel] [PATCH] multipathd.service: remove "Also=multipathd.socket"

From: Martin Wilck <mwilck at suse.com>

This "Also=" directive is wrong. It was meant for enabling socket activation,
but it actually does the opposite. "Also=multipathd.socket" means that
enabling/disabling the service will enable/disable the socket, too. This is
not what we want: socket activation means that we can enable the socket
while the service is disabled and will be activated by the socket on demand.

See https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/pull/2290,
https://github.com/opensvc/multipath-tools/issues/65

Fixes: ca985df ("multipathd: switch to socket activation for systemd")
