[dm-devel] [PATCH 2/2] Add path priority callout for RDAC

RDAC currently doesn't have a path priority callout. This affects
the expected behavior of multipath. i.e multipath's active path group doesn't
always lead to the preferred path of the device.

This patch sets the priority of a path based on the preferred path that is
queried from the controller through the C9 inquiry page.
