[dm-devel] [PATCH v2 7/7] fix udev rules for failed multipath devices

11-dm-mpath.rules was only correctly dealing with the case where the
multipath device was unusable because the last path had failed.  If
instead, the last working path was removed from the device on a table
reload, it was not correctly marking the device as unusable. One problem
with fixing this is that when the device table is reloaded,
device-mapper doesn't know if the path devices are usable or not.  To
deal with this, multipath now flags reloads with no usable paths with
DM_SUBSYSTEM_UDEV_FLAG2.

11-dm-mpath.rules now checks for both PATH_FAILED events and reloads
with no valid paths. and disables the other rules.
