Subject: [PATCH] CVE-2019-13103: disk: stop infinite recursion in DOS
 Partitions

part_get_info_extended and print_partition_extended can recurse infinitely
while parsing a self-referential filesystem or one with a silly number of
extended partitions. This patch adds a limit to the number of recursive
partitions.
