[PATCH V7 1/6] mtd: partitions: add helper for deleting partition

From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>

There are two similar functions handling deletion. One handles single
partition and another the whole MTD flash device. They share (duplicate)
some code so it makes sense to add a small helper for that part.

Function del_mtd_partitions has been moved a bit to keep all deleting
stuff together.

V6: Introduction of this patch. It's needed by "mtd: partitions: add
    support for subpartitions"
V7: Don't move sysfs_remove_files here (see the next patch instead).
