Check and set master panic write flag so that low level drivers
can use it to take required action to ensure oops data gets written
to assigned mtdoops device partition.

When the nvmem framework is enabled, a nvmem device is created per mtd
device/partition.

It is not uncommon that a device can have multiple mtd devices with
partitions that have the same name. Eg, when there DT overlay is allowed
and the same device with mtd is attached twice.

Under that circumstances, the mtd fails to register due to a name
duplication on the nvmem framework.

With this patch we use the mtdX name instead of the partition name,
which is unique.

MLC NANDs can be made a bit more reliable if we only program the lower
page of each pair. At least, this solves the paired-pages corruption
issue.

<id>urn:sha1:46b5889cc2c54bac7d7e727a44d28a298df23cef</id>
<content type='text'>
Instead of collecting partitions in a flat list, create a hierarchy
within the mtd_info structure: use a partitions list to keep track of
the partitions of an MTD device (which might be itself a partition of
another MTD device), a pointer to the parent device (NULL when the MTD
device is the root one, not a partition).

By also saving directly in mtd_info the offset of the partition, we
can get rid of the mtd_part structure.

While at it, be consistent in the naming of the mtd_info structures to
ease the understanding of the new hierarchy: these structures are
usually called 'mtd', unless there are multiple instances of the same
structure. In this case, there is usually a parent/child bound so we
will call them 'parent' and 'child'.
