The change requests above are designed to fall back to by-path
specifically to remain compatible with kvm virtio devices. I've done a
test deployment in a devops-driven kvm based test environment with
both patches applied and it worked fine. I've approved both patches
and they are now merged to fuel-web and fuel-library master branches.

I think it's the other way around: #1263648 is the duplicate, and
#1271549 is a similar bug that may be fixed by the above two change
requests.

With the above fixes merged, I think our disk device identification
should now be reliable enough, is there a plan for further changes in
5.0?
