Thank you for making this RFE.

I have looked at the master configuration files for all of our current kernel package sets and can confirm that option is currently disabled.

[Build64 kernels]$ grep -ir CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH * | grep '\-5\.3' | sort
el7/config-5.3/config-5.3.0-x86_64:# CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH is not set
el7/config-5.3/config-5.3.1-x86_64:# CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH is not set
el8/config-5.3/config-5.3.0-x86_64:# CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH is not set
el8/config-5.3/config-5.3.1-x86_64:# CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH is not set
[Build64 kernels]$

I have now queued the relevant configuration change for the next release of the kernel-ml package sets, for both el7 and el8.
