It's because that in select_action() when force_reload is set, if we also need
rename the mpp device, reload action won't be taken any more.
I did this patch by introducing a new action ACT_RENAME2 to group these two
action. Test passed. However, it seems to be a rough patch and I am not
certain if this bind is fine refering to dm_reassign. Please comment, Thanks.
