* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Depend on grub-mount-udeb.

17. By Colin Watson

* Cherry-pick from trunk:
  - Use grub-mount if it exists. This lets us do true read-only mounts,
    and works better on journalling filesystems that were mounted
    uncleanly (LP: #683355).
  - Attempt to load the fuse module, to improve the chances of grub-mount
    working.
* Depend on grub-mount-udeb.

[ Christian Perrier ]
* Fix Windows Vista and Windows Recovery Environment partitions
  recognition. (Thanks, Bouke Bunnik)
  Closes: #589676, LP: #476625
* Allow recognition of recent MINIX installations.
  Thanks to Feiran Zheng
  Closes: #592924

[ Colin Watson ]
* Improve error message when /sys/block is missing.
* os-prober doesn't know how to probe other OSes on non-Linux kernels.
  For now, just exit quietly rather than confusing people (closes:
  #567953).
* Ignore active swap partitions (thanks, Alex Owen; see #417407).
* Refactor linux_mount_boot to look up labels and UUIDs using blkid or
  /dev/disk/by-*/ rather than relying on mount being smart enough. This
  removes some horrible code that executes mount from /target.
* Set partitions read-only before mounting them (based on a patch by Alex
  Owen; closes: #417407, #556739, #599203).
