Partitions walls are taken as live (imposed) loads, not dead loads. This is because they are structurally redundant and can be moved around as the use of the building changes over time. For this reason, partition loads are modeled as area loads, rather than line loads, because their positions may change.
On the other hand, a load-bearing masonry wall that is structurally important would be modelled in its position and as a dead line load.
