We already register an nt_signature parameter for MBR partitions. Register an equivalent guid parameter for GPT partitions as well. This is less critical because disk GUID isn't used for root= Linux boot argument computation, as each partition has its own PARTUUID. It's still useful to allow shell scripts to check against it to detect e.g. a factory flash image.
