Actually no.  Disabling a physical path works too.   That is how I stumbled
upon the MP issue.  I plugged one of my paths into a second server to
attempt using Linux to flash the firmware.   When the flash started working
from the primary server, I never loaded Linux in the second server.

I think the problem is actually in the disk accepting firmware via
multipath not so much the OS.  The OS throws the error when a message down
a second path gets rejected by the drive.
