[PATCH] mtd: mxc_nand: Fix warning on nr_parts unused variable

[PATCH] mtd: mxc_nand: Fix warning on nr_parts unused variable

[Fabio Estevam]

If CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS is not selected, then the following warning is generated:

  CC      drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.o
drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c: In function 'mxcnd_probe':
drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c:1014: warning: unused variable 'nr_parts'

Fix it by marking nr_parts as __maybe_unused.

I'm curious, do you really use MTD without CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS ? Or
you found just random warning? I'm asking because I believed this config
option has to be killed, because it causes more harm in form of mess,
than good.

Anyway, putting this to my l2-mtd-2.6.git, thanks.

I was using it without CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS because first I was trying 
to get the NAND to be detected only.
