Initial proposal was to aad access to the bootme flag in dkwedge, 
which has been considered bad design, and I agreed with that. 

The patch moves the GPT parser out of dkwedge so that it can
be used by other kernel componentx. You calll gpt_walk() with
a callback invoked for each GPT entry. dkwedge use it to do the
job it was doing before, and raiddframe use it to solve a 
raidframe-specific issue.

Hence this is already "handled some other way" as once proposed.
