The GPT parser located in the block layer defines all of the GPT-specific data structures and logic that are necessary to parse this kind of partition table. However, it is also specifically tailored for block devices. Assuming that different GPT parsers will be implemented in other kernel subsystems, it is desirable to create a common set of GPT struct definitions, macros and helpers, so as to limit code reuse between parsers. As a first step towards this common codebase, this commit moves the efi.h header, that contains GPT-specific definitions, to include/linux/gpt.h. There is no functional change.
