When mutipath_message is called with an action and a device, it needs to find the pgpath that matches that device. dm_get_device() is not the right function for this. dm_get_device() will look for a table_device matching the requested path in use by either the live or inactive table. If it doesn't find the device, dm_get_device() will open it and add it to the table. Means that multipath_message will accept any block device, add it to the table if not present, and then look through the pgpaths to see if it finds a match. Afterwards it will remove the device if it was not previously in the table devices list.
This is the only function that can modify the device list of a table besides the constructors and destructors, and it can only do this when it was passed an invalid message. Instead, multipath_message() should call dm_devt_from_path() to get the device dev_t, and match that against its pgpaths.
