losetup: add --list and --output option
The --list --all is the default output: # losetup NAME SIZE OFFSET AUTOCLEAR RO BACK-FILE /dev/loop0 0 0 0 0 /home/fs-images/swap.img /dev/loop1 0 100 0 0 /home/fs-images/disk.img [kzak@redhat.com: - default to --all if no device specified, - cleanup column names (add BACK- prefix) - add MAJ:MIN to of the loopdev device] Signed-off-by: Ondrej Oprala <ooprala@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
