The code in block/partitions/msdos.c recognizes FreeBSD, OpenBSD
and NetBSD partitions and does a reasonable job picking out OpenBSD
and NetBSD UFS subpartitions.
But for FreeBSD the subpartitions are always "bad".
Kernel: <bsd:bad subpartition - ignored
Though all 3 of these BSD systems use UFS as a file system, only
FreeBSD uses relative start addresses in the subpartition
declarations.
The following patch fixes this for FreeBSD partitions and leaves
the code for OpenBSD and NetBSD intact:

If a GUID Partition Table claims to have more than 2**25 entries, the
calculation of the partition table size in alloc_read_gpt_entries() will
overflow a 32-bit integer and not enough space will be allocated for the
table.
Nothing seems to get written out of bounds, but later efi_partition() will
read up to 32768 bytes from a 128 byte buffer, possibly OOPSing or exposing
information to /proc/partitions and uevents.
The problem exists on both 64-bit and 32-bit platforms.
Fix the overflow and also print a meaningful debug message if the table
size is too large.

For 4K LBA or very large disks, atari_partition can easily get tricked
into thinking it has found an Atari partition table. Depending on the
data in the disk, it ends up creating partitions with awkward lengths.
We saw logs like this while playing with fio.
[5.625867] nvme2n1: AHDI p2
[5.625872] nvme2n1: p2 size 2910030523 extends beyond EOD, truncated
People has had issues with misinterpreted AHDI partition tables for a long
time, see this BSD thread from 1995, for example.

Since the atari partition, according to the spec, doesn't even support
sector sizes with more than 512, a quick sanity check is reasonable to
just bail out early, before even attempting to read sector 0.

If md->signature == MAC_DRIVER_MAGIC and md->block_size == 1023, a single
512 byte sector would be read (secsize / 512). However the partition
structure would be located past the end of the buffer (secsize % 512).

As Christoph put it:
Can we just get rid of the warnings? It's fairly annoying as devices
without partitions are perfectly fine and very useful.
Me too I see this message every VM boot for ages on all my
devices. Would love to just remove it. For me a partition-table
is only needed for a booting BIOS, grub, and stuff.

The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited,
case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics
and a slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so
strnicmp was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper
for the new strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.
To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in
the future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do
s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.

Use ARRAY_SIZE instead of sizeof to get proper max for label length.
Since this is just a read out of bounds it's not that bad, but the
problem becomes user-visible eg if one tries to use DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and
DEBUG_RODATA, at least with some enhancements from Hiroshi. Of course
the destination array can contain garbage when we read beyond the end of
source array so that would be another user-visible problem.

In commit 27a7c64217 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr size in lba")
we started treating bad sizes in lba field of the partition that has the
0xEE (GPT protective) as errors.
However, we may run into these "bad sizes" in the real world if someone
uses dd to copy an image from a smaller disk to a bigger disk. Since
this case used to work (even without using force_gpt), keep it working
and treat the size mismatch as a warning instead of an error.

Recently commit bab55417b1 ("block: support embedded device command
line partition") introduced CONFIG_CMDLINE_PARSER. However, that name
is too generic and sounds like it enables/disables generic kernel boot
arg processing, when it really is block specific.
Before this option becomes a part of a full/final release, add the BLK_
prefix to it so that it is clear in absence of any other context that it
is block specific.
In addition, fix up the following less critical items:
- help text was not really at all helpful.
- index file for Documentation was not updated
- add the new arg to Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
- clarify wording in source comments

Matt found that commit 27a7c64217 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr
size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot. The
reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of
the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA. While most disk
partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics,
Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit
limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1].
Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk
or 0xFFFFFFFF. No tool in its right mind would set it to any value
other than these.
