[PATCH] mtd: plat_nand: allow platform to set partitions

[hartleys]

Add optional callback to allow platform to initialize partitions.

Static partitions on a nand device could vary depending on the size of
the device.  This patch allows an optional platform callback to be used
to setup this partition information at runtime.

Scan order is:
	1) chip.part_probe_types
	2) chip.set_parts
	3) chip.partitions
	4) full mtd device (fallback for no partitions)

Some of the existing nand drivers could possibly be replaced by the
plat_nand driver by using this patch.  These include autcpu12.c and
ts7250.c drivers.

This patch was originally submitted to linux-mtd but it was
suggested I post it here for a broader review.
