File os-prober-usr_lib-detection.patch of Package os-prober

From: Andrey Borzenkov <arvidjaar@gmail.com>
Subject: fix detection of distributions with /lib => /usr/lib symlink
Upstream: yes

grub-mount does not implement symbolic links, so distributions
that replaced /lib with /usr/lib were not detected. Check both
/lib and /usr/lib. Patch taken from upstream version.

Affected is e.g. Fedora 18.
