Dave Wysochanski c9e45581ad dm mpath: add retry pg init
This patch allows a failed path group initialisation command to be retried.

It adds a generic MP_RETRY flag and a "pg_init_retries" feature to
device-mapper multipath which limits the number of retries.

1. A hw handler sends a path initialization command to the storage and
the command completes with an error code indicating the command
should be retried.

2. The hardware handler calls dm_pg_init_complete() with MP_RETRY
set in err_flags to ask the dm multipath core to retry.

3. If the retry limit has not been exceeded, pg_init() is retried.
Otherwise fail_path() is called.

If you are using the userspace multipath-tools or device-mapper-multipath
package, you can set pg_init_retries in the 'device' section of your
/etc/multipath.conf file. For example:

features                "2 pg_init_retries 7"

The number of PG retries attempted is reported in the 'dmsetup status' output.
