Michael Schmitz fc3d092c6b 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).
