Bug#827412: multipath-tools: /dev/mapper device files not removed when partition is removed

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Surprisingly, I am not able to reproduce this bug, now, on my virtual setup.
Here, the updation to /dev/mapper/ entries are instant as and when partitions
are deleted, without the patch proposed in this bug report.

So inclusion of this patch will depend on the bug reporter's results. We also
need to determine the cause of the bug because it is not just reproducible with
in a partitioned block device environment.
