[PATCH] device-mapper: Fix queue_if_no_path initialisation
When creating a multipath device, if the queue_if_no_path parameter is
specified it gets ignored.
While the queue_if_no_path variable is correctly set to 1, the
saved_queue_if_no_path gets set to 0. When the device is subsequently made
live (resumed), the saved value (0) always overwrites the live value (1) so
the option *always* gets turned off.
The fix adds a parameter to the queue_if_no_path() function to indicate
whether the previous value should be preserved or not - if not, as when the
device is being set up, the saved value is set to the new value (1).
