This is a patch for multipath-tools-boot to install a /scripts/local-premount/multipath script (based on the btrfs script).
It just runs "udevadm settle --timeout 121" (timeout value taken from udev initramfs scripts).

This is supposed to ensure that by the time local_mount_root() calls resolve_device(), the multipath udev rules are finished, thus the /dev/disk/by-uuid/ symlinks are updated/pointing to multipath devices, and $ROOT will be set to a multipath device (vs. an individual path).
