Title:
  live-migration fails when FC multipath is used

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) icehouse series:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I tried live-migration against VM with multipath access to FC bootable volume and FC data volume.
  After checking the code, I found the reason is that
  1. /dev/dm-<NUM> is used, which is subject to change in the destination Compute Node since it is not unique across nodes
  2. multipath_id in connnection_info is not maintained properly and may be lost during connection refreshing

  The fix would be
  1. Like iSCSI multipath, use /dev/mapper/<multipath_id> instead of /dev/dm-<NUM>
  2. Since multipath_id is unique for a volume no matter where it is attached, add logic to preserve this information.
