bug#21856: print bug in probe_filesystem_for_geom

[Tim Kissane]

Greetings Parted devs,

While attempting to use parted to examine a USB (/dev/sdb), I tripped a 
bug message.  I hope this information proves helpful.
My uneducated guess is that the function probe_filesystem_for_geom needs 
to validate input. Or perhaps I need to learn the right usage. ;)
