partitions/efi: Fix integer overflow in GPT size calculation
If a GUID Partition Table claims to have more than 2**25 entries, the calculation of the partition table size in alloc_read_gpt_entries() will overflow a 32-bit integer and not enough space will be allocated for the table. Nothing seems to get written out of bounds, but later efi_partition() will read up to 32768 bytes from a 128 byte buffer, possibly OOPSing or exposing information to /proc/partitions and uevents. The problem exists on both 64-bit and 32-bit platforms. Fix the overflow and also print a meaningful debug message if the table size is too large.
