* [PATCH] hurd: Use part: qualifier

When using userland drivers such as rumpdisk, we'd rather make ext2fs use
parted-based libstore partitioning support. That can be used for kernelland
drivers as well, so we can just make grub always use the part: qualifier to
switch ext2fs to it.

grub_util_find_hurd_root_device then has to understand this syntax and translate
it into the /dev/ entry name.

Sadly this patch does not apply. I suppose it conflicts with "hurd:
Support device entries with @/dev/disk: qualifier" patch which I pushed
into master. If you want me to get this patch please rebase it on the
latest master and post on the grub-devel again.

Indeed, the "part:" patch was based on an earlier version of that patch.
I have now sent an updated patch.
