In this bug's context the following should work too,
in /etc/multipath.conf :

devices {
	device {
		vendor ATA
		product *
		getuid_callout "/sbin/scsi_id -g -u -p 0x80 -s /block/%n"
	}
}


Now, it'll likely not solve all problems. I guess what is really wanted
is multipath to blacklist the SATA devices. This feature is in the devel
branch only.

blacklist {
	device {
		vendor ATA
		product *
	}
}
