Issue

• If multipathd failed to add a path to the multipath device table. It would not correctly orphan the path. This would cause multipath to treat the path as if it belonged to a multipath device, when it did not.

  Consequence: Multipathd could keep trying to switch to a non-existent pathgroup if it failed to add a path to the multipath device. Errors similar to below would be seen
