[PATCH v2 07/12] multipathd: ignore failed wwid recheck

[Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com>]

If disable_changed_wwids is set, when multipathd gets a change event on
a path, it verifies that the wwid hasn't changed in uev_update_path().
If get_uid() failed, uev_update_path treated this as a wwid change to 0.
This could cause paths to suddenly be dropped due to an issue with
getting the wwid.  Even if get_uid() failed because the path was down,
it no change uevent happend when it later became active, multipathd
would continue to ignore the path. Also, scsi_uid_fallback() clears the
failure return if it doesn't attempt to fallback, causing get_uid()
to return success, when it actually failed.

Multipathd should neither set nor clear wwid_changed if get_uid()
returned failure. Also, scsi_uid_fallback() should retain the old return
value if it doesn't attempt to fallback.
