I found why it happens. The problem is how os-prober resolves UUID-
mounted partitions. It uses `readlink -f`. And it works in most cases,
but on my system it works like that:

$ readlink -f /dev/disk/by-uuid/b7c815db-eefe-4e08-8d62-0c68531fa8ca
/dev/dm-7

So UUID resolved to /dev/dm-7 instead of isw_dahhdhgec_ASUS_OS7, so os-
prober didn't test if this partition is actually mounted as '/'.
