Will do off-list.

I won't have time in the near or mid-term.  So if someone else would
like to convert mptests over to blktests that'd be wonderful.

Fanning out to test the various supported test permutations would be
cool (meaning, test with both MULTIPATH_BACKEND_MODULE=scsidebug and
MULTIPATH_BACKEND_MODULE=tcmloop ... but tcmloop is brittle due to
sysfs changes vs targetcli's sysfs expectations -- but that's a
targetcli issue that might have been fixed, assuming that code is
supported still?  Not revisited in a few months)
