[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: os-prober
Version: 1.77
Tags: patch

os-prober mounts and runs tests on partitions of RADOS block devices
mapped by the Linux driver.

While the grub-mount mechanism can be expected to be non-destructive
this is unnecessary dangerous and time consuming as GRUB has no support
for RBD.

# rbd showmapped
id pool image                                          snap device    
0  rbd  00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000.rbd.disk0 -    /dev/rbd0

os-prober: debug: running /usr/lib/os-probes/50mounted-tests on /dev/rbd0p1
os-prober: debug: running /usr/lib/os-probes/50mounted-tests on /dev/rbd0p2
os-prober: debug: os detected by /usr/lib/os-probes/50mounted-tests

After applying the patch:
os-prober: debug: /dev/rbd0p1: is a mapped rbd, skipping
os-prober: debug: /dev/rbd0p2: is a mapped rbd, skipping
[0001-skip-partitions-of-mapped-rbd.patch (text/x-patch, attachment)]
