Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] nvme: multipath: Invalidate current_path when changing iopolicy

From: "Ewan D. Milne" <emilne@...hat.com>

When switching back to numa from round-robin, current_path may refer to
a different path than the one numa would have selected, and it is desirable
to have consistent behavior.
