Subject: [code] Unlimited partitions, a try


15 partitions (at least for sd_mod devices) are too few.

So I tried the following: after scanning the disk (sda), when we know
the number of partitions P on a disk, create a new block device
/dev/gd0 that is a copy of sda (in terms of disk->queue, etc.). This
is done using alloc_disk(P).

However, read() on gd0 will just return 0. It takes a `blockdev --rereadpt
/dev/gd0` before the disk is accessible. And if I add a call to
rescan inside gpdisk_new() it oopses (probably rightfully so). I do not 
know all the block layer magic, so expect some horrible code.

Ideas, hints, anything is welcome.
