        Kernel 2.6.15 will have a poll()'able /proc/mounts file, which
        tells us about mount tree changes. Kernel 2.6.16 will no longer
        have any netlink event regarding block devices mount/claim.
        We watch only /proc/mounts from now, remove all netlink listening
        and depend on kernel version 2.6.15.

        With every mount event, we update all known devices now, to the
        current state found in /proc/mounts. The device name in /proc/mounts
        is ignored, but the dev_t of the underlying block device is
        looked up to find the hal device. That way, /dev/root and rootdev
        will also be recognized and the current mount state becomes visible.

        * hald/linux2/blockdev.c: (blockdev_refresh_mount_state),
        (add_blockdev_probing_helper_done):
        * hald/linux2/blockdev.h:
        * hald/linux2/classdev.c:
        * hald/linux2/osspec.c: (hald_helper_data),
        (mount_tree_changed_event), (osspec_init):
