IIRC, we used to always set queue_if_no_path before reloading the map,
and then call setup_multipath() afterwards, which would call
set_no_path_retry() to set it to the actual correct value. If we are
correctly setting the feature line when we reload the map, that's a
better solution. Obviously, we can't strip set_no_path_retry() out of
__setup_multipath() since we rely on that to deal with deal with going
into recovery mode. However, without some more thought and code reading,
I'm not sure if we do still need the calls to dm_queue_if_no_path()
there for some other reason anymore. At any rate, they won't hurt
anything, except for causing a redundant call to device-mapper.
Also, if we're yanking these dm_queue_if_no_path() calls from
coalesce_paths, I don't see why we need them in reload_map(), where they
also seem redundant if we just correctly set the features argument when
we reloaded the table.
ACK, but I wouldn't mind seeing the calls pulled from reload_map as
well.
