kernel: mtd: Make subpartitions inherit parent's access mode
Currently it's not possible to effectively mark a "firmware" partition as read-only. The sub-partitions "kernel", "rootfs" and "rootfs_data" are always created as read-write (ignoring the parent access mode). This patch enforces the access mode of sub-partitions to match the parent partition, which is useful for recovery images that are meant to be fully read-only to avoid accidental damage from end-user. An example of such implementation (read-only firmware image) is the recovery image used on the Zsun-SD100 [1]. Please note the related patch for fstools [2] to enable this read-only concept.
