Hi Xose,

do you have a specific use case where this helps / changes matters?

The idea of the current code is to use PRIO_SYSFS always, except for
RDAC arrays with implicit ALUA, where periodic RTPGs are necessary (see
7e2f46d). This patch would change matters only for RDAC arrays which
advertise both explicit and implicit ALUA support.

Maybe Steven can clarify if such RDAC arrays exist, and whether we
should use PRIO_SYSFS or PRIO_ALUA for them.

Martin
