[PATCH] 2.5.42 cciss partition problem

[Stephen Cameron]

Hmm, this patch didn't seem to make it into 2.5.42.  Without it, or 
something like it, the cciss driver is pretty badly broken.  Without it, 
only partitions on the first disk can be accessed.  If there's something 
wrong with this patch and this problem needs to be fixed in a different way, 
let me know.
