When a multipath device is created for the first time, there is a window where some path devices way be added to the multipath device, but never claimed in udev. This can allow other device owners, like lvm, to think they can use the device. When a multipath device is first created, all the existing paths that are not claimed by multipath have a uevent triggered so that they can get claimed. After that, multipath assumes all future paths added to the multipath device will have been claimed by multipath, since the device's WWID is now in the wwids file. This doesn't work for any paths that have already been processed by the multipath.rules udev rules before the multipath device was created. To close this window, when path device is added, and a matching multipath device already exists, multipathd now checks if the device is claimed by multipath, and if not, triggers a uevent to claim it.
