==========================

I was wrong last time. Glen added code to print uuid code from
xfs_db, not change it.

So we have two conflicing tasks here:

1. turning an existing filesystem into two distinct filesystems.
   because of how they are created - they would be different
   devices, but have the same uuid.

2. prevent mounts of the same device when it has multiple paths

I think we can make one work automatically and the other require
some operator intervention.
