Bug description:
  OS-Brick disconnect_volume code assumes that the use_multipath
  parameter that is used to instantiate the connector has the same value
  than the connector that was used on the original connect_volume call.

  Unfortunately this is not necessarily true, because Nova can attach a
  volume, then its multipath configuration can be enabled or disabled,
  and then a detach can be issued.

  This leads to a series of serious issues such as:

  - Not flushing the single path on disconnect_volume (possible data loss) and leaving it as a leftover device on the host when Nova calls terminate-connection on Cinder.
  - Not flushing the multipath device (possible data loss) and leaving it as a lefover device similarly to the other case.
