[PATCH 0/43 V2] mtd: simplify mtd partitions handling

[PATCH 0/43 V2] mtd: simplify mtd partitions handling

[Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov]

Lots of mtd drivers have more or less the same common logic:
parse partitions, then register them. Currently this ends up
with lots of code duplication, each copy having it's own features
and bugs. In this patch serie I create a special function
(mtd_device_parse_register) which handles all issues with acquiring
partition information, registering mtd device(s) and returning correct
error code.

Changes since V1:
- Added kerneldoc for mtd_device_parse_register
- removed lart.c patch (wrong commit message)
- dropped call to mtd_device_register from rbtx4939-flash
- small fixes within patches

The following changes since commit 1dc1d90aa53e6cec61f5369b6d1e185b3ef40c14:

  mtd: davinci_nand: remove redundant mtd_device_unregister (2011-06-08 18:00:41 +0300)

[PATCH 01/43] mtd: add new API for handling MTD registration

[Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov]

Lots (nearly all) mtd drivers contain nearly the similar code that
calls parse_mtd_partitions, provides some platform-default values, if
parsing fails, and registers  mtd device.

This is an aim to provide single implementation of this scenario:
mtd_device_parse_register() which will handle all this parsing and
defaults.

[PATCH 07/43] mtd: h720x-flash.c: use mtd_device_parse_register

[Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov]

Replace custom invocations of parse_mtd_partitions and mtd_device_register

[PATCH 17/43] mtd: rbtx4939-flash.c: use mtd_device_parse_register

[Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov]

Replace custom invocations of parse_mtd_partitions and mtd_device_register
with common mtd_device_parse_register call. This would bring: standard
handling of all errors, fallback to default partitions, etc.

[PATCH 37/43] mtd: s3c2410.c: use mtd_device_parse_register

[Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov]

Replace custom invocations of parse_mtd_partitions and mtd_device_register
with common mtd_device_parse_register call. This would bring: standard
handling of all errors, fallback to default partitions, etc.

longer because (my vim can do this). And pushed, thanks!

Compare the alignment - original file is aligned with tabs and then few
spaces (the way I prefer), you use only tabs, which is not consistent
with this driver's style. But I'll amend this myself :-)
