called from check.c, if the disk contains GPT
partitions, sets up partition entries in the kernel.
.PP
If the first block on the disk is a legacy MBR,
it will get handled by \fBmsdos_partition\fR\&.
If it's a Protective MBR, we'll handle it here.

We do not create a Linux partition for GPT, but
only for the actual data partitions.
