This patch series extends the EFI_PARTITION_INFO_PROTOCOL implementation
to also support MBR partition tables schemes.
When EFI_PARTITION_INFO_PROTOCOL was implented, only GPT support was
added but this can cause compatibility issues with platforms whose boot
ROM only supports MBR. This series add support for MBR partition tables
to the protocol, making U-Boot compatible with systems that require a
legacy MBR table.
Patches #1 to #3 are preparatory changes to remove duplicated definitions
of data structures to store the MBR records.
Finally patch #4 adds the MBR support to the EFI_PARTITION_INFO_PROTOCOL
implementation and patch #5 enhances the protocol selftest, to check that
the partition record data is correctly filled.
