[Bug 644481] [NEW] 95-kpartx.rules uses invalid -Q argument to modprobe(8)

[John Morrissey]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: multipath-tools

95-kpartx.rules calls modprobe(8) with the invalid -Q argument. I'm
guessing it wants -q, for quiet?

# Always attempt to load dm-multipath. This way we can get rid of the
