Description: [PATCH] libmultipath: update waiter handling

The current 'waiter' structure accesses fields which belong
to the main 'mpp' structure, which has a totally different
lifetime. With this patch most of these dependencies are
removed and the 'waiter' structure can run independently
of the main 'mpp' structure, reducing the risk of
use-after-free faults.
