Subject: [PATCH] mtd: parsers: trx: parse "firmware" MTD partitions only
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Parsing every partition with "compatible" set to "brcm,trx" results in
parsing both: firmware partition and failsafe partition on devices that
implement failsafe booting. This affects e.g. Linksys EA9500 which has:

partition@200000 {
	reg = <0x0200000 0x01d00000>;
	compatible = "linksys,ns-firmware", "brcm,trx";
};

partition@1f00000 {
	reg = <0x01f00000 0x01d00000>;
	compatible = "linksys,ns-firmware", "brcm,trx";
};

Check for MTD partition name "firmware" before parsing. Recently added
ofpart_linksys_ns.c creates "firmware" and "failsafe" depending on
bootloader setup.
