[dm-devel] [PATCH] IBM hwtable update

Hi Christophe, Hannes,

I thought I had already sent parts of these but they don't seem to be in 
the git head when
I look now. I'd suggest a small change for the DS6000 aka 1750500. Since 
paths with
higher prio are more appreciated, wouldn'T FAILBACK_IMMEDIATE make more 
sense?

Regards,
Stefan
