[MTD] driver model updates
Update driver model support in the MTD framework, so it fits better into the current udev-based hotplug framework: - Each mtd_info now has a device node. MTD drivers should set the dev.parent field to point to the physical device, before setting up partitions or otherwise declaring MTDs. - Those device nodes always map to /sys/class/mtdX device nodes, which no longer depend on MTD_CHARDEV. - Those mtdX sysfs nodes have a "starter set" of attributes; it's not yet sufficient to replace /proc/mtd. - Enabling MTD_CHARDEV provides /sys/class/mtdXro/ nodes and the /sys/class/mtd*/dev attributes (for udev, mdev, etc). - Include a MODULE_ALIAS_CHARDEV_MAJOR macro. It'll work with udev creating the /dev/mtd* nodes, not just a static rootfs. So the sysfs structure is pretty much what you'd expect, except that readonly chardev nodes are a bit quirky.
