[PATCH V5] mtd: bcm47part driver for BCM47XX chipsets

This driver provides parser detecting partitions on BCM47XX flash
memories. It has many differences in comparison to BCM63XX, like:
1) Different CFE with no more trivial MAGICs
2) More partitions types (board_data, ML, POT)
3) Supporting more than 1 flash on a device
which resulted in decision of writing new parser.
It uses generic mtd interface and was successfully tested with Netgear
WNDR4500 router which has 2 flash memories: serial one and NAND one.

---
V2: 1) Add support for more partitinos (ML and POT)
2) Optimize: don't scan whole flash (like up to 128 MiB)
3) Optimize: don't scan TRX partitions after detecting header
V3: 1) More defines less magic numbers
2) Less duplication by adding bcm47part_add_part
3) Mask out MTD_WRITEABLE only when needed
V4: 1) Use u32 *buf (no more fourcc casting)
2) Fix buf size
3) Optimize: put continue where possible
4) Don't check for filled .size - it was an old idea
5) Rename driver to match bcm64xx naming schema
6) Coding style fixes
V5: 1) Free memory
2) Add help in Kconfig
