kernel: don't switch allocate_partition to use mtd_roundup_to_eb
This mtd_roundup_to_eb helper was introduced years ago in the commit daec7ad768841 ("kernel/3.10: add separate rootfs partition parser") and it was probably supposed to simplify code a bit. With the recent upstream commit 1eeef2d7483a7 ("mtd: handle partitioning on devices with 0 erasesize") the logic in allocate_partition got slightly more complex and we can't use this simple helper anymore as it doesn't support MTD_NO_ERASE properly. There also isn't any real gain from this helper, so it's probably easier to just don't use it *or* work on upstreaming it to avoid maintenance cost. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
