kernel: support FIT partition parser on mtdblock devices
Allow using the FIT block-device partition partition parser to work on
top of mtdblock devices.
This is more tricky than it sounds as it requires to reorganize the
procedure of registering mtdblock devices in order to avoid locking
troubles caused by the block partition parsers then trying to open
the mtdblock device for reading while locks are still being held.
Fix that by moving the adding of the disks after the entire device
has been probed when locks no longer need to be held.
Also address issue with mtdsuper surfaced when using sub-partitions
which prevented mounting JFFS2 using the /dev/mtdblock* device.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mtd: blktrans: call add disks after mtd device
To: linux-mtd@lists.infradead.org
Cc: Vignesh Raghavendra <vigneshr@ti.com>,
Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>,
Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com>,
David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
Calling device_add_disk while holding mtd_table_mutex leads
to deadlock in case part_bits!=0 as block partition parsers
will try to open the newly created disks, trying to acquire
mutex once again.
Move device_add_disk to additional function called after
add partitions of an MTD device have been added and locks
have been released.
