mtd: add a flags for partitions which should just leave smth. after them
Add support for MTDPART_OFS_RETAIN: such partitions start at the current offset, take as much space as possible, but rain part->size bytes after the end of the partitions for other parts. Primarily this is intended for ts72xx arm platforms cleanup. Artem: tweaked the patch a bit Signed-off-by: Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov <dbaryshkov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
