To: device-mapper development; +Cc: Christophe Varoqui
dm_reassign wasn't working correctly for me because devt2devname used stat()
to check if /sys/dev/block/major:minor was a symlink. But stat() never returns
a symlink. It follows it. It needs to use lstat() instead. Also, I made
multipath log a message when a dm device gets reassigned to use multipath.
