Title:
  find_multipaths feature missing from upstream

Status in multipath-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  There's an interesting feature called find_multipaths that was first
  mentioned here on dm-devel in July 2011.

  https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2011-July/msg00102.html

  It's now the corner stone of dm multipath configuration in the RHEL 6 DM Multipath configuration guide
  https://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/DM_Multipath/config_file_blacklist.html

  What it basically allows is autoprobing of devices to safely enable multpath on luns that satisfy
  the proper criteria. It has the power to reduce a multipath.conf configuration to a single line.

  Alas it doesn't exist in the upstream sources, only as a patch in RH's multipath package
    0021-RHBZ-558636-add-find-multipaths.patch

  This bug exists to track the status of this feature and it's ultimate integration into upstream
  or into our multipath-tools package.
