With CONFIG_PARTITION_NEED_MTD enabled we use mtd rather than devfs
directly to create partitions on mtd devices. Since:

| mtd: nand: bb: use mtd api directly

| The devfs layer just adds an addition indirection between mtd

The bad block aware device creation doesn't work if this option
is disabled. With this we remove CONFIG_PARTITION_NEED_MTD and always
use mtd partitions on mtd devices.

This is a fresh UBI import from Linux v3.10
This is done mainly to get fastmap support.
This was tested with the i.MX nand driver, the MXS nand driver and
on CFI NOR flash.

CFI Flash is currently handled outside the mtd layer which makes it
a special case. Integrate it into mtd so that we get rid of this
special status.

Add a device to read and write to MTD data and oob
(/dev/mtdraw<N>).
The device is constrained in a separate source file, so that
further improvement of commands (such as nandwrite) could
make it useless, and easy to remove.
