No, the patch you referenced fixes a case where you start a VM in oVirt 3.2 and upgrade vdsm to 3.3 (or migrate the vm to a host running vdsm 3.3).
The problem is that the path vdsm has on the newer host is out of sync with the libvirt xml and libvirt does not correlate the two paths despite them leading to the same disk.  (i.e. libvirt assumes that after migration paths to disks remain the same).
