[PATCH 19/91] Validate size of EFI GUID partition entries.

[Willy Tarreau]

2.6.27-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

commit fa039d5f6b126fbd65eefa05db2f67e44df8f121 upstream.

Otherwise corrupted EFI partition tables can cause total confusion.
