dm mpath: only retry ioctl when no paths if queue_if_no_path set
When there are no paths and multipath receives an ioctl, it waits until
a path becomes available. This behaviour is incorrect if the
"queue_if_no_path" setting was not specified, as then the ioctl should
be rejected immediately, which this patch now does.
commit 35991652b ("dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init") should
have checked if queue_if_no_path was configured before queueing IO.
Checking for the queue_if_no_path feature, like is done in map_io(),
allows the following table load to work without blocking in the
multipath_ioctl retry loop:
echo "0 1024 multipath 0 0 0 0" | dmsetup create mpath_nodevs
Without this fix the multipath_ioctl will block with the following stack
trace:
