syzbot reported a global-out-of-bounds in number. [1]

Corrupted partno causes out-of-bounds access when accessing the hex_asc_upper
array.

To avoid this issue, skip partitions with partno greater than DISK_MAX_PARTS.

Maybe a warning is in order; when we are hitting this issue it means
that linux has a limitation on causing it to ignore the (otherwise valid) partition entry.

Otherwise looks good.
