Subject: [PATCH] nbd: Respect max_part for all partition scans

The creation path of the NBD device respects max_part and only scans for
partitions if max_part is not 0. However, some other code paths ignore
max_part, and unconditionally scan for partitions. Add a check for
max_part on each partition scan.

Caught this when reading recent NBD patches, which tweaked the
nbd_set_size path.

It doesn't seem worth factoring these two lines into a function,
especially since the callers obtain the disk structure in different
ways.
