An upstream PR for 0.9.8 is currently in preparation
(https://github.com/opensvc/multipath-tools/pull/81)
Some minor review is still missing before it can be merged upstream.

We need the included fixes as bug fixes for SLE15-SP6. Will update
to 0.9.8 asap when it's released; no relevant changes between 0.9.8
and this code base are expected.
