I've got few comments to this code.

Probably print_efiname() could meet your requirements.

I've got an error for Trats2:

--------------------------------------------------------------
Trats2 # print partitions
partitions=uuid_disk=${uuid_gpt_disk};name=csa-mmc,start=5MiB,size=8MiB,uuid=${u
uid_gpt_csa-mmc};name=boot,size=60MiB,uuid=${uuid_gpt_boot};name=qboot,size=100M

data};name=ums,size=-,uuid=${uuid_gpt_ums}
Trats2 # gpt write mmc 0 $partitions

at disk/part_efi.c:662/gpt_verify_partitions()
Verify GPT: error!
Trats2 #
--------------------------------------------------------------

The function set_gpt_info() in file common/cmd_gpt.c doesn't fill the 
'partitions' as your code expects. There are some assumptions, respected 
by gpt_fill_pte(), like empty start, which you fixed, and case for which 
'size' is empty (e.g. for the last partition) - which cause printing an 
error as above.

The function gpt_verify_partitions() should actually do the same what 
gpt_fill_pte() does, but it has no sense to duplicate the code.

To make proper verification in this function it would be better if you 
remove this loop and call function gpt_fill_pte() to fill some temporary 
'gpt_e' array from the parsed env $partitions.

Then you can compare if the temporary created gpt array entries are 
equal to the device's gpt entries.

Then you don't need to take care about the assumptions to parsing 
$partitions - just compare two headers - if $partition will change, then 
you will see the difference in the gpt headers.
