[dm-devel] [PATCH v2 05/20] libmultipath: trigger change uevent on new device creation

From: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins at redhat.com>

When multipath first sees a path device with find_multipaths
enabled, it can't know if the device should be multipathed. This means
that it will not claim the device in udev.  If the device is eventually
multipathed, multipath should trigger a change uevent to update the udev
database to claim the device.
