The cm-fx6 module has an on-board spi flash chip. Enable mtd support

These changes move the effective default partitioning from the device
tree shipped with the vendor kernels to u-boot which becomes the single
point of definition for the partitioning for all device tree based
kernels (in particular, for the upstream linux kernel which does not
have a default partitioning defined in its device tree).

Probably, this is really needed.
Care to explain?
The sf probe command probes for the spi flash and registers (on success)
the device as nor0. This device is used by mtdparts (cf. the mtdids
variable; it maps the U-Boot name nor0 to the kernel name spi0.0) and
the mtd fixup code in patch 2 (cf. the nodes array; it specifies the
compatible of the flash chip of type NOR #0, i.e. nor0).
Without this all mtdparts commands will fail and the fixup code won't
work because there is nor0 device.
Thanks for the explanation!
That sounds to me like this should go away once we have the DM in place
for spi flash and MTD (added Simon to Cc).
Meanwhile, may be a short notice in the commit message?
Sure, I will add it.
Thanks,
Christopher
