mtab is officially dead now, even in mount(8). Please always use
/proc/self/mountinfo, it has the major/minor in there, which is a far
more reliable match than the device file name. Example is here:
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=blob;f=extras/cdrom_id/cdrom_id.c;h=4a58a49030231f854be8ce63e6b8d700b5f1b832;hb=HEAD#l118

HAL was also GPL just like udisks, there is need to get into trouble
with other licences added to the udisks code, especially not for 3
lines getmntent() parsing. :)

Tanks,
Kay
