In mtdcore.c, some function descriptions do not match function
definitions. Just fix these mismatches.

In the commit 2c77c57d22adb ("mtd: move code adding master MTD out of
mtd_add_device_partitions()") behavior of mtd_device_parse_register()
has very slightly changed. It's a pretty non-significant order change
to match updated function behavior.

<title>mtd: Stop updating erase_info-&gt;state and calling mtd_erase_callback()</title>

<content type='text'>
MTD users are no longer checking erase_info-&gt;state to determine if the
erase operation failed or succeeded. Moreover, mtd_erase_callback() is
now a NOP.

We can safely get rid of all mtd_erase_callback() calls and all
erase_info-&gt;state assignments. While at it, get rid of the
erase_info-&gt;state field, all MTD_ERASE_XXX definitions and the
mtd_erase_callback() function.

None of the mtd-&gt;_erase() implementations work in an asynchronous manner,
so let's simplify MTD users that call mtd_erase(). All they need to do
is check the value returned by mtd_erase() and assume that != 0 means
failure.

This simplifies code a bit by:
1) Avoiding an extra (tiny) function
2) Checking for amount of parsed (found) partitions just once
3) Avoiding clearing/filling struct mtd_partitions manually

With this commit proper functions are called directly from the
mtd_device_parse_register(). It doesn't need to use minor tricks like
memsetting struct to 0 to trigger an expected
mtd_add_device_partitions() behavior.

This change is a small cleanup of mtd_device_parse_register(). When
using MTD_PARTITIONED_MASTER it makes sure a master MTD is registered
before dealing with partitions. The advantage of this is not mixing
code handling master MTD with code handling partitions.

This commit doesn't change any behavior except from a slightly different
failure code path. The new code may need to call del_mtd_device when
something goes wrong.

Some devices do not implement -&gt;_erase() or have an invalid -&gt;erasesize
value. In this case, mtd_erase() should return -ENOTSUPP.

Note that the test is not done on the MTD_NO_ERASE flag because this
flag means 'erasing a block before writing to it is unnecessary',
not 'the erase operation is not supported'. Actually, some drivers are
setting the MTD_NO_ERASE flag but still implementing the -&gt;_erase()
hook and setting a valid -&gt;erasesize value.
