From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>
ofpart was recently patched to not scan random partition nodes as
subpartitions. That change unfortunately broke scanning valid
subpartitions like:
partitions {
compatible = "fixed-partitions";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
partition at 0 {
compatible = "fixed-partitions";
label = "bootloader";
reg = <0x0 0x100000>;
partition at 0 {
label = "config";
reg = <0x80000 0x80000>;
};
};
};
Fix that regression by adding 1 more code path. We actually need 3
conditional blocks to support 3 possible cases. This change also makes
code easier to understand & follow.
