Subject: addpart: 512-byte sectors in code, bytes in man-page
X-Git-Tag: v2.15-rc1~72

addpart: 512-byte sectors in code, bytes in man-page

The addpart.c code uses 512-byte sectors for partition start and
length, but in the addpart.8 man page is "in bytes". The code (and
this code is pretty old) is always right... the man page has to be
fixed.
