disk: part_dos: fix part_get_info_extended() function

From: Shawn Guo <[email protected]>

The check in part_get_info_extended() for a successful partition searching misses a condition for extended partition. In case of (ext_part_sector == 0), we should anyway mark the partition as found, even if it's an extended partition, i.e. (is_extended(pt->sys_ind) == 0). Otherwise, the extended partition (type 0x0f) will never be identified, and the following recursive call to part_get_info_extended() will get a wrong 'part_num' and 'which_part' parameter. In the end, all those partitions in extended table will not be identified.

Let's add the missing OR condition of (ext_part_sector == 0) for is_extended() check to fix the problem.

The issue is discovered by running fastboot flash to an extended partition on eMMC.

  $ fastboot flash mmcsda5 cache.img

Applied to u-boot/master, thanks!
