Merge tag 'for-linus-20151217' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd

Pull MTD fixes from Brian Norris:
 "I was holding out on this pull request for a bit, since there are a
  few other small issues being discussed that look like 4.4-rc
  regressions.  Hopefully I can get those stabilized soon, but these are
  ready at any rate:

   - A little bit of a last-minute change for the device tree "fixed
     partition" binding.  This is needed because we might want to reuse
     the 'partitions' subnode for other sorts of partitioning
     descriptions -- e.g., for describing which on-flash partition
     format(s) might be used on the system.

   - Also tone down a warning message, since it is probably going to
     show up on a lot of systems where it should just be ignored"
