For non-CPU_BIOS architectures calculate the number of cylinders on
a disk rather than accepting the cylinder count provided by the disk
or controller. This cylinder count will be '16383' for any disk >8.4G
according to the ATA spec. CPU_BIOS on i386/amd64 has magic to deal
with this, but other archs do not need to be restricted by the needs
of PC BIOS.
Fixes the default MBR OpenBSD partition size and disklabel on non-CPU_BIOS
archtitectures.
No change to behaviour on i386/amd64 machines.
