Subject: [PATCH 18/18] libparted: Stop converting . in sys path to /
In _probe_sys_block it claimed that ! and . are replaced by / in sys
paths, but according to the kernel code only ! is replaced (for cciss
devices).
This is now causing problems with libnvdimm devices, the details are
here:

(cherry picked from commit 579bd6878b07d8387451d36106ccf86d26818b77)
