[PATCH 05/10] mpath: don't wait for udev if all paths are down

["Benjamin Marzinski" <bmarzins@redhat.com>]

Normally multipath waits for udev to create a device before adding
more paths, which could trigger a reload. But, if the first path
discovered is not usable, you should add the next path right away.
