[dm-devel] [PATCH v2 11/20] libmultipath: don't try to set up failed wwids again

Once setting up a map has failed, don't try to set it up again.
This applies to "multipathd reconfigure" and even multipathd restart,
too. That's deliberate - if a WWID is marked as failed, we don't wont
to bother with it again, unless the admin explicitly tells us so.
Specifically, the exceptions are:

 1) multipathd add map $MAP
 2) multipathd add path $PATH
 3) multipath $PATH

In these cases, addmap() will eventually be called again, and the failed
flag will be set according to it's return status. Unless the reason for
the previous failure has been fixed, it may well be "failed" again.

Inofficially, it's also possible to manually remove a failed marker under
/dev/shm/multipath/failed_wwids and run "multipathd reconfigure".
