112. By Rafael David Tinoco

* Added linux-specific-gpt-type.patch: Cherry pick upstream patch to
  add Linux own partition type code GUID for fs partitions on GPT
  disks (LP: #1333462):

    Parted will set PARTITION_LINUX_DATA_GUID as the default partition type
    code on GPT disks, avoiding problems with other tools such as:
      - grub: /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/20microsoft
      - windows: asking to format an already linux-formatted partition

Fix dm-part-sync.patch to canonicalize the dm name when constructing

* Backport from upstream:
  - HFS/HFS+ probe: don't let a corrupt FS evoke failed assertion
    (LP: #796891).

107. By Colin Watson

* At least some Intel Macs get rather upset if we revert to a protective
  MBR, so try harder to avoid this and to do a better job of writing a
  hybrid MBR:
  - Write a type code of 0x83 for more filesystems, and 0xda for
    non-filesystem partitions.
  - Do not rely on filesystem probing to recognise EFI System Partitions.
  - Write a protective partition starting at LBA 1 if we find an EFI
    System Partition or BIOS Boot Partition in the first position, even if
    it does not really begin at LBA 1 (LP: #856826).
  - Ensure that protective partitions corresponding to an ESP or BBP
    always have starting cylinder 0, head 0, sector 1.
  - Don't revert to a protective MBR just because the first GPT partition
    wasn't recognised as anything in particular.
  - Add tests for hybrid MBR syncing.
