Subject: [PATCH 10/11] libparted: device mapper uses 512b sectors
device mapper doesn't use the device's sector size when creating a
table. It always uses 512b units. This causes partitions to be created
8x smaller than expected on devices with 4906b sectors.

** Bug Fixes
+ Use 512b sector size when communicating with device-mapper. Fixes
+ problems with partitions being created too small on dm devices
+ with sector sizes > 5121b
+
Don't crash in the disk_set command when a disk label is not found
libparted-fs-resize: Prevent crash resizing FAT16 file systems.
