block/partitions/efi.c: fix bound check
Use ARRAY_SIZE instead of sizeof to get proper max for label length. Since this is just a read out of bounds it's not that bad, but the problem becomes user-visible eg if one tries to use DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and DEBUG_RODATA, at least with some enhancements from Hiroshi. Of course the destination array can contain garbage when we read beyond the end of source array so that would be another user-visible problem.
