[PATCH 1/3] mtd: initialize partitions_entry

[Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>]

&mtd->partitions_entry is added to the parents partition list only when
DEVFS_PARTITION_FIXED is not set, but later this check is not done when
removing it from the list again. This results in NULL pointer derefs
when a mtd partition is added with DEVFS_PARTITION_FIXED set and removed
later.

Do a INIT_LIST_HEAD() on &mtd->partitions_entry so we can safely call
list_del() on it later without additional checks. This means we can
remove the existing check as well.
