Alexey Dobriyan 9c867fbe06 partitions: fix sometimes unreadable partition strings
Fix this garbage happening quite often:

==>	 sda:
	scsi 3:0:0:0: CD-ROM            TOSHIBA
==>	 sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 <sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 24x/24x writer dvd-ram cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
			    ^^^
	Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20
	sr 3:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0
==>	 sda5 sda6 sda7 >

Make "sda: sda1 ..." lines actually lines.

Tejun Heo 1493bf217f block: use struct parsed_partitions *state universally in partition check code
Make the following changes to partition check code.

* Add ->bdev to struct parsed_partitions.

* Introduce read_part_sector() which is a simple wrapper around
  read_dev_sector() which takes struct parsed_partitions *state
  instead of @bdev.

* For functions which used to take @state and @bdev, drop @bdev.  For
  functions which used to take @bdev, replace it with @state.

* While updating, drop superflous checks on NULL state/bdev in ldm.c.

This cleans up the API a bit and enables better handling of IO errors
during partition check as the generic partition check code now has
much better visibility into what went wrong in the low level code
paths.

Bob Copeland 0e6e1db4ac [PATCH] partitions: Read Rio Karma partition table
The Rio Karma portable MP3 player has its own proprietary partition table.

The partition layout is similar to a DOS boot sector but it begins at a
different offset and uses a different magic number (0xAB56 instead of
0xAA55).  Add support for it to enable mounting the device.
