thanks

The EFI format is unfortunately rather misdesigned and has a backup data
area at the end of the devices - which won't be acciable by lots of usb
devices because they have broken size reporting.

This alone wouldn't be a problem if we could simply probe EFI last, but
that doesn't work either as EFI partition tables also contain a fake
dos partition table to trick around older windows versions.

Best thing for > 2TB disks is to use LVM anyway
