Using an MTD device (resp. partition) name in mtdparts is simple and
straightforward. However, for a long time already, another name was
given in mtdparts to indicate a device (resp. partition) so the
"mtdids" environment variable was created to do the match.
Let's create a function that, from an MTD device (resp. partition)
name, search for the equivalent name in the "mtdparts" environment
variable thanks to the "mtdids" string.
