PATCH: fix bad geometry hang, printing of optional fields

PATCH: fix bad geometry hang, printing of optional fields

[Alan Cox]

If you get invalid geometry (eg a failed drive) the box hangs on boot because
we try and unregister the registered driver and end up in a locking mess.

We change the behaviour to simply leave the device unattached which avoids
the mess.

Also if a drive reports no geometry then don't try and verify the LBA
data is correct against the geometry. Also don't print the non-existant
legacy geometry.
