Subject: davinci_nand: cmdlinepart uses MTD IDs
From: David Brownell <dbrownell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Remove some legacy code from the davinci_nand driver, which made
cmdlinepart ignore the the MTD ID passed to it. Boards can have multiple
NAND chips, and some do (like the DM357 EVM), so this dated hack is
undesirable.
Correct labels a"re like davinci_nand.0" (for chipselect 0).
