[PATCH v2] cdev: maintain partition index in struct cdev

[PATCH v2] cdev: maintain partition index in struct cdev

[Ahmad Fatoum]

For use by the EFI loader, we will need to know a partition's number
within the partition table on disk, so have the devfs-core keep track
of that.

Mere iteration over the cdev list doesn't work for thus purpose as there
may be invalid PTEs, which cause e.g. the first on-disk partition to
have a higher number.

See 9dfffaf2ef47 ("partitions: efi: Continue partition enumeration on
invalid pte") for more info. A real world example is the current
debian-13-nocloud-arm64.raw image, which has two partitions:
0 and 14 (or 1 and 15 in barebox).

v1 -> v2:
  - record actual partition number from the table.
    I compared against EDK-II and Linux and both take the actual
    number, which may not be either the number in our cdev list
    or the location on disk.
