Subject: [GIT] Sparc

Two changes:

1) It makes no sense to execute a VTOC partition table request
   in the Sun virtual block device driver and fail to load if it
   doesn't succeed because a) we don't use the result at all and
   b) it won't succeed if there is an EFI partition on the disk,
   for example.

   We read the partition table via the normal means in the block
   layer anyways, so this is really completely useless, so just
   remove it.

   From Dwight Engen.

2) Hook up new bpf system call.

Please pull, thanks a lot!
