Following patchset implements some improvements and cleanup for the
GPT booting code:

patch 1: Simplify the gpt detection code with lesser scopes and add
	 comments.

patch 2: Introduce 8byte LE helpers: x@-le and x!-le

patch 3: Rename block / read-sector to indicate it a allocated buffer

patch 4: As we need to detect FAT partition, implement a helper that
	 can be used both from GPT code and "fat-bootblock?"
 
patch 5: Implement GPT FAT for LVM suport and make GPT detection code
         robust

Nikunj A Dadhania (5):
  disk-label: simplify gpt-prep-partition? routine
  introduce 8-byte LE helpers
  disk-label: rename confusing "block" word
  disk-label: introduce helper to check fat filesystem
  disk-label: add support for booting from GPT FAT partition
