------------------------------------------------------
Subject: physmap: fix leak of memory returned by parse_mtd_partitions
From: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The mtd partition parser returns an allocated pointer array of
mtd_partition.  The caller must free it.  The array is used only for
add_mtd_partitions(), so free it just after the call.
