Description of problem:
I have following code to issue SCSI_IOCTL_GET_IDLUN

unsigned int flags = O_RDWR | O_NONBLOCK;
unsigned int status, id[2], deviceId;

deviceId = open(deviceName.c_str(), flags);
status = ioctl (deviceId, SCSI_IOCTL_GET_IDLUN, &id);

This call fails if deviceName is of type /dev/mapper/mpath4
This call is successfull for normal scsi devices. /dev/sdh

# multipath -l mpath4
mpath4 (360060480000290300149533030303743)

Same is the case of call 

SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND - I use this to read SCSI mod pages for device inquiry
SG_IO - I use this to issue SCSI3 Persistent Group Reservation




Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
device-mapper-1.02.07-4.0.RHEL4,  device-mapper-1.02.07-4.0.RHEL4, device-mapper-multipath-0.4.5-16.1.RHEL4
device-mapper-multipath-0.4.5-16.1.RHEL4

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write code which accepts device path and issue above mentioned IOCTLS
2. Run the code mentioned above by passing device path generated by device-mapper multipath module.


Actual Results:
SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND, SG_IO and SCSI_IOCTL_GET_IDLUN device calls fails on /dev/mapper/mpath4

Expected Results:
SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND, SG_IO and SCSI_IOCTL_GET_IDLUN calls should pass on /dev/mapper/mpath4 and return appropriate data.
