When opening a cdev also allow a path beginning with /dev/ as some
users of cdev_open already open coded this behaviour.

This adds a device_node member to struct cdev and a function
to find a cdev by device_node.
This also removes the setting of cdev->dev->device_node in
the of partition parser. We must not set the device since it
may not refer to a partition but to a whole device with partitions.

With CONFIG_PARTITION_NEED_MTD enabled we use mtd rather than devfs
directly to create partitions on mtd devices. Since:

| mtd: nand: bb: use mtd api directly

| The devfs layer just adds an addition indirection between mtd

The bad block aware device creation doesn't work if this option
is disabled. With this we remove CONFIG_PARTITION_NEED_MTD and always
use mtd partitions on mtd devices.

__devfs_add_partition returns the newly created cdev, but in case
of mtd partitions it accidently returns 0. Fix this.

Compared to devfs_add_partition which adds a single partition
devfs_create_partitions creates several partitions at once. One nice
benefit is that this simplifies appending partitions because the start
of the latter partition doesn't need to be specified explicitly.
Also dev_add_bb_dev() is called by the new helper if the bbname is
specified for a partition.
Note that adding partitions is also more flexible now (also via
devfs_add_partition) because negative values for offset and size now
have a proper meaning instead of creating broken partitions.

The value is only used to assign to a (*struct cdev)->flags which is an
unsigned int and it is passed as fourth parameter of mtd_add_partition which
is an unsigned long.

So far mtd partitions were mtd devices, but these were not registered.
This patch changes this. mtd partitions are now registered like real
mtd devices. This makes them part of the device hierarchy.

ubiformat needs the subpagesize to work correctly. The kernel uses
sysfs to pass the subpagesize, but in barebox we have the possibility
to extend struct mtd_info_user. Add a corresponding field and use it
in ubiformat.

cdev_open() opens a cdev by name. This introduces cdev_do_open which
allows to open a cdev when the cdev is already found by other means.

currently most partition cdevs have the name <devname>.<partname>
This makes it hard to find a partition by <partname>. This introduces
a partname field in struct cdev so that.

To make that, we need to shift mtd_erase before mtd_ioctl.
ubi-utils need that, especially ubiformat.

In the Kernel the mtd ioctls expect a pointer to the offset, whereas
barebox interprets the pointer itself as an offset. Since we want
to add 64bit support for file sizes a pointer may not be sufficient,
so align with the kernel and convert it to a pointer to the offset.

For disk like devices attached to MCI, ATA or USB it depends on the order they

This makes it possible to compile without devfs. devfs_create/devfs_remove
is used by drivers and thus must still be present even without devfs support.
Also, this patch adds cdev_open/cdev_close/cdev_flush/cdev_ioctl calls to
work with devices without using the file api.
