Is the ControlPath still too long? What happens, if you call the command
directly in the shell?

# ssh -l root -o ControlMaster=auto -o 
ControlPath=/var/folders/yb/0cdss5q52d1848_2th2kp_740000gn/T/tramp.54213PO4.%C 
-o ControlPersist=no -e none <myhost>

And what happens if you call

# ssh -l root -o ControlMaster=auto -o ControlPath=tramp.54213PO4.%C -o 
ControlPersist=no -e none <myhost>

No, they are unique for the triple (user, host, port) only. This triple
could be used also outside Emacs for an ssh connection.
