scsi: PC partition tables are little endian
As sparse correctly pointed out, scsi_partsize should use get_unaligned_le32
to read PC partition tables from disk, as they are little endian.
The result of this bug is that we returned incorrect geometries on big
endian systems when using the scsicam variant. Which probably doesn't
matter as only old x86 systems every cared about the geometry.
