[PATCH 2/4] libmultipath: get_uid: don't quit prematurely without udev

[Martin Wilck <mwilck@suse.com>]

Not all the implemented methods to derive the UID rely on udev
information being present. For example getuid callout, rbd,
and the SCSI vpd code work fine without it. It's unlikely that
we don't get udev data, but we want to be as good as possible
at deriving the uid.
