When running `kpartx -d`, find_loop_by_file tries to compare the image's
realpath with the output from loopinfo.lo_name, which may hold only the
basename of the image, making kpartx exit without finding the loopdev
for the image.
In case the original comparison fails, this patch will check the image's
realpath with the loop device's backing_file so that find_loop_by_file
will return the correct value.
