block: fix signed int overflow in Amiga partition support
The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB. Use sector_t as type for sector address and size to allow using disks up to 2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD. This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by the RDB author, Joanne Dow <jdow@earthlink.net>. A patch had been discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially submitted. This patch differs from Joanne's patch only in its use of sector_t instead of unsigned int. No checking for overflows is done (see patch 3 of this series for that).
