Re: [PATCH 19/57] multipathd: Do not print misleading message 'not found in pathvec'

The patch was merged as-is, so reinstating the warning, using another non-conflicting phrasing, would require a new patch.

I'm not particulary attached to this patch.
The main issues I have is that we're generating two identical messages
at two different locations (ie making it hard to debug), and that the
message don't indicate whether it's an error or not.

But sure, I can easily drop this patch.
