In case that the nand device will support some features like Nand Flash
Controller, we want to make the sub feature as a sub node of nand device.
Use such organization it is easy to enable/disable feature, also it is back
compatible and more readable.
If the sub-node has a compatible property then it is a driver not partition.

v3 --> v4:
- remove the 'len' parameter, just use NULL.
- refine the commit message.
- also add a NOTE in devicetree/bindings/mtd/partition.txt.

used for what purposes, but which don't use an on-flash partition table such
as RedBoot.
+NOTE: if the sub-node has a compatible string, then it is not a partition.
#address-cells & #size-cells must both be present in the mtd device. There are
two valid values for both:
