[PATCH v3 3/3] mtd: mtdconcat: add dt driver for concat devices

[Bernhard Frauendienst <kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Some mtd drivers like physmap variants have support for concatenating
multiple mtd devices, but there is no generic way to define such a
concat device from within the device tree.

This is useful for some SoC boards that use multiple flash chips as
memory banks of a single mtd device, with partitions spanning chip
borders.

This commit adds a driver for creating virtual mtd-concat devices. They
must have a compatible = "mtd-concat" line, and define a list of devices
to concat in the 'devices' property, for example:

flash {
  compatible = "mtd-concat";

  devices = <&flash0 &flash1>;

  partitions {
    ...
  };
};

The driver is added to the very end of the mtd Makefile to increase the
likelyhood of all child devices already being loaded at the time of
probing, preventing unnecessary deferred probes.
