[PATCH v1 4/4] mtd: mtdpart: Allow fwnode links to NVMEM compatible fwnodes

[Michael Pratt]

This reverts commit fb42378dcc7f247df56f0ecddfdae85487495fbc
("mtd: mtdpart: Don't create platform device that'll never probe").

That commit is a manual named exception in order to avoid fw_devlink links
to an "nvmem-cells" compatible node which is a descendant of the fwnode
that represents the real supplier device that probes.

The commit does not work for newer cases, like the "fixed-layout"
compatible nodes, but instead of adding another compatible string,
remove this workaround as it is no longer needed after
the previous few commits which handle the situation in a generic way
for all supplier nodes that are a child or further descendant fwnode
of a parent device that can probe, including when the consumer device
has a probe attempt before the supplier device, by using an existing
incorrect fwnode or device link to recreate the correct one.
