GUID partition entry defined to have a partition name as 36 UTF-16LE
code units. This means that on big-endian platforms ASCII symbols
would be read with 0xXX00 efi_char16_t character code. In order to
correctly extract ASCII characters from a partition name field we
should be converted from 16LE to CPU architecture.

The problem exists on all big endian platforms.

   677	 * Description: called from check.c, if the disk contains GPT
   678	 * partitions, sets up partition entries in the kernel.
   679	 *
   680	 * If the first block on the disk is a legacy MBR,

   684	 * We do not create a Linux partition for GPT, but
   685	 * only for the actual data partitions.
   686	 * Returns:
   687	 * -1 if unable to read the partition table
   688	 *  0 if this isn't our partition table
