+Subject: [PATCH] Make grub_efidisk_get_device_name() work on 4K native disks.
+
+When we have 4kB sectors instead of 512b sectors, hd.partition_start and
+grub_partition_get_start() won't match - the latter assumes 512-byte
+sectors, and the former gives us the correct number based on the
+physical media's sector size.  So when we have to compare them, we need
+to compensate.
