Alpha no longer recognises certain partition tables (v2.6.38)

[Michael Cree]

v2.6.38 boot reports it can't recognise the partition table on the 
system disk on my Alpha and panics when it can't find the root device.

It worked at v2.6.38-rc7.

While I haven't done a bisect to fully verify I nevertheless suggest the 
following patch as the likely cause:

1eafbfe Fix corrupted OSF partition table parsing

Cheers
Michael.
