Peter, above patch was dropped, together with the one adding support for
the "of_match_table".

I just sent V8 of my changes, hopefully they don't cause regression this
time.

Would you be able to test following two patches & verify that your 
device
still works, please?
[PATCH V8 1/2] mtd: partitions: add of_match_table parser matching
