Subject: [PATCH] mtd: partitions: add of_match_table parser matching
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Partition parsers can now provide an of_match_table to enable
flash<-->parser matching via device tree as documented in the
mtd/partition.txt.

It works by looking for a matching parser for every string in the
"compatibility" property (starting with the most specific one).

This support is currently limited to built-in parsers as it uses
request_module() and friends. This should be sufficient for most cases
though as compiling parsers as modules isn't a common choice.
