Issue: When multipathd is starting up, it will reply "timeout\n" immediatly when got any IPC command from socket. The expected way is to wait uxsock_timeout/1000 seconds. Root cause: pthread_mutex_timedlock() is expecting a CLOCK_REALTIME time. Fix: Use CLOCK_REALTIME for pthread_mutex_timedlock().
