Why merged so quickly?

I tested this patchset on my device and posted about the issues. [1]

This should be reworked, since the verify assumptions are too simple and 
doesn't fully match the GPT header creation.
So this command will fail for some cases of write/verify sequence, 
depending on what the $partitions includes.
