Replace the use of O_DIRECT with calls to fsync() at appropriate times.

debian/patches/parted-dmraid.dpatch: Removed some hunks that somehow
made their way into the patch when I was editing it at some point.
these hunks reverted functionality from unpartitioned-disks.dpatch.
We don't want that.

* debian/patches/parted-dmraid.dpatch:
  - Simplify code in _is_dmraid_device, as it was needlessly complex.
  - Add _is_dmraid_major function to check whether a dmraid evice node
    is for a partition, or the master node of the array. This results
    in only the master dmraid device node being probed.

debian/rules: Remove leftovers from a debugging session when
adding dmraid code.

debian/patches/parted-dmraid.dpatch: Patch to educate libparted about
dmraid arrays, which use device mapper. Libparted was naming new partition
nodes incorrectly, and not setting the UUIDs for dmraid device nodes.

unpartitioned-disks.dpatch (update): Don't tell device-mapper to create
partitions on unpartitionable disks.

* Resynchronise with Debian (LP: #237568). Remaining changes:
  - swap-uuid.dpatch: Create UUIDs on new swap partitions.
  - gptsync.dpatch: On Intel Mac systems, write a synced MBR rather than a
    protective MBR.
  - Add -fno-stack-protector on sparc.
  - sparc-new-label.dpatch: Fix sparc disk label generation. This is
    required for LDOM and parallel installations with Solaris 10.
  - loop-partitions.dpatch: Loop devices can only have one partition, so
    don't generate device names such as "/dev/loop0p1".
  - unpartitioned-disks.dpatch: Don't try to call BLKPG ioctls on
    unpartitionable disks (only implemented for loop devices at the
    moment), as they will always fail.
  - When building with gcc-4.3, add -Wno-array-bounds to CFLAGS.
  - Cell partition tables are misdetected as pc98, so disable pc98 support
    on powerpc.
  - array-bounds.dpatch: Backport patch from git to allow building with
    gcc-4.3.

array-bounds.dpatch: Backport patch from git to allow building with
gcc-4.3 (closes: #474822, LP: #185882).

24. By Colin Watson on 2008-05-29

fat-partition-table.dpatch: Instead of checking for FAT file system
signatures (which has false positives), check whether the boot indicator
on each partition is 0 or 0x80 (LP: #232175). This matches the behaviour
of both the Linux kernel and fdisk.

23. By Colin Watson on 2008-03-30

gptsync.dpatch: Only write a synced legacy MBR on Apple systems;
otherwise, write a protective MBR per the EFI standard (LP: #107326).
This behaviour may be overridden by setting the environment variable
PARTED_GPT_APPLE to 1 (always write synced legacy MBR) or 0 (always
write protective MBR).
