* Add 16-dos-partitions.patch: Fix parted to correctly handle
  more than 16 partitions on dos partition tables.
* Add dm-part-sync.patch: Backport fix to allow modifying partitions
  on dmraid disks while other partitions are in use.
* Replace dmraid.patch: Reimplemented and forwarded upstream,
  allows dmraid raid10 disks to show up (LP: #311179)
* Replace loop-partitions.patch: this patch used to make sure that
  we don't try to partition loop devices. Now it backports a few
  upstream changes to allow partitioning loop devices since that is
  supported on Linux since 3.0. It includes a change that also fixes
  support for > 16 partitions.
* Add skip-floppy.patch: don't probe floppy drives. (LP: #910379)

95. By Colin Watson on 2011-08-31

When creating a legacy MBR on Apple systems, only ever mark an existing
partition as a fake protective partition if it is the first partition
and it starts at LBA 1, otherwise GRUB and the Linux kernel respectively
will fail to treat the disk as GPT; if there is no partition fitting
these criteria, then fall back to creating a fake protective partition
(LP: #837681).
