block: genhd: Add disk/partition specific uevent callbacks for partition info
For disk devices, a new uevent parameter 'NPARTS' specifies the number
of partitions detected by the kernel. Partition devices get 'PARTN' which
specifies the partitions index in the table, and 'PARTNAME', which
specifies PARTNAME specifices the partition name of a partition device
