Bugs Tested

Oracle BUG 5531591 ASMLIB NOT DISCOVERING MULTIPATH DEVICE.

Details

Resolves: 

[ora 5531591]: ASMLIB, as a "non root" user makes an ioctl(, BLKSSZGET, .) to 
               the devices that are configured to be managed by ASMLIB. md_ioctl
	       was returning EACCESS for any non root user. This restriction has
	       been relaxed to allow the non root users to do some non 
	       privileged operations on these devices.
