The Lorax project found a regression in kpartx -d behavior introduced
by the following commit: 9bdfa3eb8e24b668e6c2bb882cddb0ccfe23ed5b

This patch should fix the problem. It's easy to reproduce this problem
(I did it on Fedora 28) with the following commands:

        # kpartx -av disk.img
        ...
        # kpartx -dv disk.img

Notice that the loop devices and partition mappings created by the first
command are not cleaned up by the second command.
