[PATCHv2 7/7] mtd: Raise limit on block device minor numbers

[Ben Hutchings]

add_mtd_blktrans_dev() imposes a maximum of 257 devices per block
translator.  This was presumably meant to prevent overflow back in the
days of 8-bit minor numbers.  Since we now have 20-bit minor numbers
and can have more than 32 MTDs, change the maximum to MINORMASK.
