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

comments.
patch 2: Introduce 8byte LE helpers: x at -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
