[PATCH] Check for multipath module before running multipath tests

[PATCH] Check for multipath module before running multipath tests

[Jes.Sorensen]

From: Jes Sorensen <Jes.Sorensen@redhat.com>

Some systems do not ship the md multipath module. If not available
simply skip any multipath tests.

Please ignore this one - something ate my brain today and damaged my
bash-fu. I'll post a working version shortly.

Sorry for the noise.
