Title:
  System will not start with multipathd enabled

Status in multipath-tools package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in multipath-tools source package in Xenial:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If I do these three commands on a fresh Ubuntu clone which has one
  pair of FCP devices pointing to a LUN:

  # apt-get -y install multipath-tools
  # systemctl enable multipathd
  # reboot

  The system will not come back up. It seems to spin with the messages:
  “A start job is running for Device-M...vice Controller (<x> / 1min
  30s)”  In 90 seconds it times out and starts counting again.
