Subject: [PATCH] Read mounted partitions from /proc/self/mountinfo

When system is booted without initrd, /proc/mounts root filesystem
contains /dev/root, rather than specific device name (like /dev/sda1).
That confuses os-prober logic for filesystem detection.

On newer systems there is /proc/self/mountinfo, which contains
major:minor device entry, which can be then looked up in sysfs
to find device identifier.

This does not affect systems that are using initrd, as initrd
will provide correct device name when mounting the root filesystem.
