mtd: fix cmdlinepart parser, early naming for auto-filled MTD
Commit 807f16d4db95 ("mtd: core: set some defaults when dev.parent is
set") attempted to provide some default settings for MTDs that
(a) assign the parent device and
(b) don't provide their own name or owner
However, this isn't a perfect drop-in replacement for the boilerplate
found in some drivers, because the MTD name is used by partition
parsers like cmdlinepart, but the name isn't set until add_mtd_device(),
after the parsing is completed. This means cmdlinepart sees a NULL name
and therefore will not work properly.
Fix this by moving the default name and owner assignment to be first in
the MTD registration process.
[Note: this does not fix all reported issues, particularly with NAND
drivers. Will require an additional fix for drivers/mtd/nand/]
