[Bug 1441930] Re: Fix handling of multipathed disks with 4k-sectors

[Mauricio Faria de Oliveira]

BTW, but not too important:

There's a quite repetitive verbose output during update-grub, mentioning:
  ERROR: unsupported sector size 4096 on <partition>.

It happens because os-prober calls dmraid for every partition, but it doesn't support 4k sectors, and yields to stderr.
A simple redirect quiets it up.
... I'm not sure it should be quieted up :) feel free to modify the scripts if you think so, or tell me and I can submit another patch.
