Log:
  Make EBR probe method less strictly to be able detect EBRs with
  small non fatal inconsistency. EBR may contain boot loader and sometimes
  it just has some garbage data. Now this does not prevent FreeBSD to use
  extended partitions. But since we do not support bootcode for EBR we mark
  tables which have non empty boot area as corrupt. This does make them
  readonly and we can not damage this data.
