Increase OSF partition limit from 8 to 18
It turns out that while a maximum of 8 partitions may be what people "should" have had, you can actually fit up to 18 entries(*) in a sector. And some people clearly were taking advantage of that, like Michael Cree, who had ten partitions on one of his OSF disks. (*) The OSF partition data starts at byte offset 64 in the first sector, and the array of 16-byte partition entries start at offset 148 in the on-disk partition structure. Reported-by: Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz> Cc: stable@kernel.org (v2.6.38) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
