[PATCH] block/ub.c: Increase number of partitions for usb storage

[Hans A Eide <haeide@usit.uio.no>]

Hi,

I do backups to external USB storage and hit the 8 partitions limit  
of ub.c
This could also be a problem for others (HFS+ formatted iPods?)

Any reason for not increasing the partitions limit to 16?

Thanks,

Hans
