I'm not familiar with dm-multipath, but at least with engenio/lsi's RDAC,
that's an unsupported/known-bad configuration. Ref:

            8. Fibre channel configuration. If a host server has 
               multiple HBA ports and each HBA port sees both 
               controllers (via a un-zoned switch), the Linux RDAC 
               driver may return I/O errors during controller failover. 
               The recommendation is to use multiple unconnected FC
               switches to zone the FC switch into multiple zones so
               that each HBA port sees only one controller in a 
               DS4000 storage subsystem.
