part_nr_sects_read() was backported incorrectly,
in mainline it is inline function defined in linux/genhd.h
It is visible outside and can be used in modules.
In our rhel6-based kernel it is an internal function
but its declaration is still present in linux/genhd.h.
This breaks compilation of affected modules
because they cannot access declared function.
thsi patch adds export for part_nr_sects_read()
that fixes broken compilation of affected modules
