This patch fixes a problem introduced in this commit: http://git.opensvc.com/gitweb.cgi?p=multipath-tools/.git;a=commitdiff;h=cef43b6f910f740c0e2d38761f58c5ebedfb7585;hp=41b85341ca514a50d18c592996a2ecb43a81fa90
Currently, the string handler for failback on hw entries expects strings like "manual" to be quoted.  The buffer always strips quotes.
As a result, the keywords manual, immediate, and followover cannot be used to change a failback parameter through multipath.conf
