Current code fails to set up multipath maps for NVME devices in a Linux target/Linux host combination. This series enables at least basic operation. Patch 1/4 fixes a crash that happens if over-long WWIDs are encountered, and is not specific to NVME as such. Patch 2/4 drops the broken test uevent_can_discard_by_devpath(). Patch 3/4 compensates for the additional event processing required by 2/4. Patch 4/4 mangles overlong "nvme.*" WWIDs to make them usable for multipath (related discussion in [1]; WWID_SIZE can't be simply increased because it has to match device mapper's DM_NAME_LEN).
