For now, I'd move the information to README.md.

It clearly identifies the devices it's talking about. Sure, there
have been several generations of firmware updates since then, and
ALUA support is now mainstream on both the storage and host side.
But it also recommends to consult the storage documentation.
So, I believe keeping it won't hurt.

Perhaps we should just delete the sentence "usually it's disabled by
default"?
