[PATCH V6 1/2] mtd: partitions: add of_match_table parser matching

["Rafał Miłecki" <zajec5-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

From: Brian Norris <computersforpeace-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>

Partition parsers can now provide an of_match_table to enable
flash<-->parser matching via device tree as documented in the
mtd/partition.txt.

It works by looking for a matching parser for every string in the
"compatibility" property (starting with the most specific one).

This support is currently limited to built-in parsers as it uses
request_module() and friends. This should be sufficient for most cases
though as compiling parsers as modules isn't a common choice.

This is based on Brian's patches:
[RFC PATCH 4/7] mtd: add of_match_mtd_parser() and of_mtd_match_mtd_parser() helpers
[RFC PATCH 6/7] RFC: mtd: partitions: enable of_match_table matching

V1: Put helpers in mtdpart.c instead of drivers/of/of_mtd.c
    Merge helpers into a single of_mtd_match_mtd_parser
V3: Add a simple comment to note we will need the best match in the future
V4: Rework new functions to pick parser with the best match
    Move new code in parse_mtd_partitions up so it has precedence over flash
    driver defaults and MTD defaults
V5: Rework matching code to start checking with the most specific string in the
    "compatibility" property.
V6: Initialize "ret" variable in mtd_part_get_parser_by_cp to NULL
