This patch addresses a problem with reading the partition table struct.
The last time this was submitted it was rejected on the grounds that the driver
has no business reading the partition table. I don't disagree with that, but
we have legacy apps to consider. Changing the ioctl would break those apps
already in customers hands.

Please consider this for inclusion.
