[PATCH 2/3] block/partitions: Support dynamic addition of partition checkers

[Takashi Iwai]

Add helper functions to add / remove the partition checker function
dynamically.  This also allows to move the partition checker code into
the driver itself, e.g. the blockconsole partition checker can be in a
part of blockconsole driver (even as a module).
