    [PATCH] revert msdos partitioning fix · b2411dd2
    Andrew Morton authored
    This change from March 3rd causes the partition parsing code to ignore
    partitions which have a signature byte of zero.  Turns out that more people
    have such partitions than we expected, and their device numbering is coming up
    wrong in post-2.6.11 kernels.
    
    So revert the change while we think about the problem a bit more.
