UEFI firmware handles with the EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL for raw access to
disks and partitions. It further provides the
EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL on these handles to access files on
formatted media.

You could use LocateHandleBuffer() here which will allocate enough
memory for all matching handles.

Why do you read the devicepath if you don't use it?

> +			continue;
> +		}

Here some analysis of devicepaths and installed protocols is missing to
find out which of the handles represents a block device and which
represents a partition:

If the last devicepath node is type 4 , Media Device Path with SubType 1
Hard Drive and the partition number is non-zero it is a partition.

If the devicepath without the last node relates to a handle with the
EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL, this also indicates that the current handle is
for a partition.
