mtd: ofpart: add compatible check for child nodes

In case that the nand device will support some features like Nand Flash
Controller, we want to make the sub feature as a sub node of nand device.

Use such organization it is easy to enable/disable feature, also it is back
compatible and more readable.

If the sub-node has a compatible property then it is a driver not partition.

on platforms which have strong conventions about which portions of a flash are
used for what purposes, but which don't use an on-flash partition table such
as RedBoot.
NOTE: if the sub-node has a compatible string, then it is not a partition.
#address-cells & #size-cells must both be present in the mtd device. There are
two valid values for both:
