[PATCH 31/58] mtd: rawnand: mxc: retain open-handle state on removal

Keep chip metadata and controller storage alive until the final MTD
reference is released. Unregister and disconnect each published chip
before releasing the resources used by its hardware operations.

Retain the embedded legacy controller and drain I/O before clock
disable.
