The "linux,part-probe" dts parsing is a pretty neat generic feature.
It has been posted to kernel.org and could easily be reused by all
targets.
This change moves the patch to the 3.18 and 4.1 generic folders, and
makes the feature available to all platforms who may want to use it.

Since the kernel/rootfs split handling was modified 2 years ago by r37283 (
https://dev.openwrt.org/changeset/37283 ) and by the subsequent checkins,
users have seen rather scary mtd errors in the log at every boot. The message
ends "-- forcing read-only", which looks a bit error-like. That error has
been mentioned in some forum threads, when users have noticed this message
instead of some actual error.
[ 2.940000] 0x000000070000-0x000000ff0000 : "firmware"
[ 2.970000] 2 netgear-fw partitions found on MTD device firmware
[ 2.970000] 0x000000070000-0x000000188440 : "kernel"
[ 2.980000] mtd: partition "kernel" must either start or end on erase
block boundary or be smaller than an erase block -- forcing read-only
[ 2.990000] 0x000000188440-0x000000ff0000 : "rootfs"
The patch removes the rather useless warning message.
