I'll introduce additional Kconfig options to enable scanning for
(sub-)partitions on MTD block and UBI block devices as Christoph Hellwig
correctly critizied that re-using this unrelated Kconfig option is
misleading.

I'll also use
if (IS_ENABLED(...))
instead of
#ifdef ...
for better coverage testing.

Now going to wait a few more days for more comments and then re-send.

Thank you for the review!
