Device nodes are commonly accessed via symlinks, i.e.
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 7 Jul 19 13:01 /dev/mapper/testvg-testlv -> ../dm-0
Today, e4defrag on such a device will fail:
File is not regular file
"/dev/mapper/testvg-testlv"
due to it being a link, and e4defrag on the link target does as well:
Filesystem is not mounted
due to the target not being found in /etc/mtab.
Fix this by checking whether the symlink target is a block device
and if so, using that device in main(), and also changing get_mount_point()
to search for a matching device number, not device name.
