Right,

so Xosé, can you confirm the last introduced hwtable entries don't need the alua hwhandler :
- nexsan
- tegile
- nimble
- nfinidat

Thanks.

Please don't apply this.
Autodetection will only work if the hardware handler is loaded.
If the handler is _not_ loaded autodetection won't work, either.
And if we add this patch multipath will never load the modules, neither.

So we need this functionality as a fallback if autodetect does not work.

Cheers,

Hannes
