This patch-set removes a bunch of dean MTD map drivers. The way I judged
whether a driver is dead or not was looking at driver's dependencies in the
Kconfig file. Whenever I saw a driver depending on a Kconfig symbol which is
not defined anywhere, I treated the driver as dead.

The motivation for this patch-set is to clean up the MTD subsystem a little and
lessen the maintenance burden. Indeed, the less drivers we have, the easier it
is to do MTD framework refactoring.

Thanks,
Artem.
