kernel: mtd: bcm47xxpart: improve handling TRX partition size
This is important fix for flash parsing in some corner cases. In case of TRX subpartition with rootfs being aligned to the flash block size it was incorrectly registered twice. Detecting & registering it as a standalone partition was resulting in an incorrect "firmware" partition size and possibly broken sysupgrade. It wasn't noticed before because "rootfs" alignment depends on a kernel size. It can happen though - depending on the configuration and the kernel size.
