And we might rely on wrong information as the device in the sysfs cache might in fact be a different device if the system decided to assign the same number to a different device or if some values have changed.
Now with this fix in, would it make any sense to tag a 0.4.8-rc1? The
last multipath-tools release has been about a year ago and it would
really be nice to have a new release, so there's a new base to diff
against.
