I meet strange filesystem corruption issue recently, the reason
is there are overlaps partitions in cmdline partition argument.

This patch add verifier for cmdline partition, then if there are
overlaps partitions, cmdline_partition will return error and log
a error message.

Partition overlap was intentionally designed in this cmdline partition.
some time, the cmdline partition save raw data(not filesystem), the overlap makes data  access very convenient.

Might make sense to warn about it at least, it can be very surprising if
it happens inadvertently.
