The nvme foreign code maps the NVMe subsys NQN to the "%n" wildcard ("alias"). Some real-world devices use very lengthy expressions for the subsys NQN (counted 95 characters on one system here), making the "multipath -ll" output hardly readable for humans. Use a shorter and more concise printout instead, based on the WWID only. The subsys NQN is still available via the "%n" wildcard: "multipathd show maps format %n".
