[PATCH 0/43 V2] mtd: simplify mtd partitions handling

[Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov]

Lots of mtd drivers have more or less the same common logic:
parse partitions, then register them. Currently this ends up
with lots of code duplication, each copy having it's own features
and bugs. In this patch serie I create a special function
(mtd_device_parse_register) which handles all issues with acquiring
partition information, registering mtd device(s) and returning correct
error code.

Changes since V1:
- Added kerneldoc for mtd_device_parse_register
- removed lart.c patch (wrong commit message)
- dropped call to mtd_device_register from rbtx4939-flash
- small fixes within patches

The following changes since commit 1dc1d90aa53e6cec61f5369b6d1e185b3ef40c14:

  mtd: davinci_nand: remove redundant mtd_device_unregister (2011-06-08 18:00:41 +0300)
