The following warning message "Unrecognised multipath message received" is displayed
in two different situations inside the function multipath_message: when
the number of arguments passed is invalid and when the string passed in argv[0]
is not recognized. With this patch, both warnings are more specific to each case
and is easier to identify where the problem is.

Hi Jose,

I've picked this patch up for 3.15.  It is staged in the 'for-next'
branch of linux-dm.git, see:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=4a5f0cfea2ba2d765f29f3951e3b993fc76206b2

Thanks,
Mike
