Currently kpartx -d only removes the partitions that have entries in the
partition table. If you remove a partition from the device, and then
run kpartx -d, it will not delete that partition (kpartx -u will). I don't
see any value in leaving partition devices for partitions that don't even
exist anymore, so this patch makes -d delete all partitions.
