dm_reassign wasn't working correctly for me because devt2devname used stat() to check if /sys/dev/block/major:minor was a symlink. But stat() never returns a symlink, if follows it. It needs to use lstat() instead. Also, I made multipath log a message when a dm device gets reassigned to use multipath.
