kernel: backport upstream mtd support for partition parsers

In a log term it should replace our implementation. For now both can
coexist.

Subject: [PATCH] mtd: partitions: add support for subpartitions
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Some flash device partitions can be containers with extra subpartitions
(volumes). All callbacks are already capable of this additional level of
indirection.
This patch makes sure we always display subpartitions using a tree
structure and takes care of deleting subpartitions when parent gets
removed.

Subject: [PATCH] mtd: partitions: add support for partition parsers
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Some devices have partitions that are kind of containers with extra
subpartitions / volumes instead of e.g. a simple filesystem data. To
support such cases we need to first create normal flash device
partitions and then take care of these special ones.
It's very common case for home routers. Depending on the vendor there
are formats like TRX, Seama, TP-Link, WRGG & more. All of them are used
to embed few partitions into a single one / single firmware file.
Ideally all vendors would use some well documented / standardized format
like UBI (and some probably start doing so), but there are still
countless devices on the market using these poor vendor specific
formats.
This patch extends MTD subsystem by allowing to specify list of parsers
that should be tried for a given partition. Supporting such poor formats
is highly unlikely to be the top priority so these changes try to
minimize maintenance cost to the minimum. It reuses existing code for
these new parsers and just adds a one property and one new function.
This implementation requires setting partition parsers in a flash
parser. A proper change of bcm47xxpart will follow and in the future we
will hopefully also find a solution for doing it with ofpart
("fixed-partitions").
