kernel: support FIT partition parser on mtdblock devices
Allow using the FIT block-device partition partition parser to work on top of mtdblock devices. This is more tricky than it sounds as it requires to reorganize the procedure of registering mtdblock devices in order to avoid locking troubles caused by the block partition parsers then trying to open the mtdblock device for reading while locks are still being held. Fix that by moving the adding of the disks after the entire device has been probed when locks no longer need to be held. Also address issue with mtdsuper surfaced when using sub-partitions which prevented mounting JFFS2 using the /dev/mtdblock* device. Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>
