    mtd: jedec_probe: Fix crash in jedec_read_mfr()
    
    It turns out that the loop where we read manufacturer
    jedec_read_mfd() can under some circumstances get a
    CFI_MFR_CONTINUATION repeatedly, making the loop go
    over all banks and eventually hit the end of the
    map and crash because of an access violation:

    Fix this by breaking the loop with a return 0 if
    the offset exceeds the map size.
