We need to prevent a possible traceback in anaconda with this fix:

Fall back on regular device name (#604776)
In deviceNameToDiskByPath() we call udev_device_get_by_path(). If there
is no by-path symlink for the device, we get None back. Rather than
return None, fall back on udev_device_get_name(info).

I've tested with 0617.0 tree which has anaconda-13.21.50-7. There was no symlink for vda under /dev/disk/by-path but it didn't trace back. I was able to complete the install using the vda disk and additional iSCSI disk.
Moving this one to VERIFIED.
