It turned out that UEFI spec 2.4 states the Partition Entry Array should be at
least 16kB (which is nonsense, because they should better define the number of
entries) which gives 128 Entries.
However why have all those flexible data structures if the number of Pertition
Entries is fixed?
I still believe 128 Pertition Entries is severe overkill.
