[PATCH 05/11] mtd: mtdpart: Do not fail mtd probe when parsing partitions fails.

[Michal Suchanek]

Due to wrong assumption in ofpart ofpart fails on Exynos on SPI chips
with no partitions because the subnode containing controller data
confuses the ofpart parser.

Thus compiling in ofpart support automatically fails probing any SPI NOR
flash without partitions on Exynos. Compiling in a partitioning scheme
should not cause probe of otherwise valid device to fail.

Remove that failure possibility.
