[PATCH 06/18] driver: add new cdev_is_partition helper

Partitions will have cdev->master != NULL, so often code will just do
if (cdev->master) to check if a cdev is a partition. This is suboptimal
as it may be misinterpreted by readers as meaning that the cdev is the
master device, while it's the other way round.

Let's define cdev_is_partition instead and use it everywhere, where
cdev->master is only checked, but not dereferenced.
