[PATCH 2/3] mtd: rawnand: mxc: set chip->of_node to nand@0 child node if present

From: Frank Li via B4 Relay

From: Frank Li <Frank.Li@xxxxxxx>

The nand-controller.yaml binding requires a child node (e.g. nand@0) under
the NAND controller. However, the driver currently assigns the controller's
of_node directly to the NAND chip.

Search for the first child node with the "nand" prefix and assign it to
chip->of_node. This filters out properties such as "partition" that may be
placed under the controller node in some older DTS files.

Fall back to using the controller's of_node if no suitable child node is
found to maintain backward compatibility.

This issue went unnoticed because the default behavior works for most NAND
chips.

Build test only because can't find such old boards, logic is the same as
gpmi nand flash controller.
