One important thing to note: Bootloaders share the same mtdparts
definition and should be updated if we decide to support a new
separator. U-boot and Barebox at least.

I think changing just Intel's PCI driver name would be much more
practical for us because I don't find the '|' separator being
descriptive at all.

However, I don't have a strong position and I would welcome
Richard, Vignesh, Tudor and Boris' point of view.

Thanks,
Miquèl
