The 'mtdparts' command is not needed anymore. While the environment
variable is still valid (and useful, along with the 'mtdids' one), the
command has been replaced by 'mtd' which is much more close to the MTD
stack and do not add its own specific glue.

- MTD partition support
+ MTD partitioning tool support.
+ It is strongly encouraged to avoid using this command
+ anymore along with 'sf', 'nand', 'onenand'. One can still
+ declare the partitions in the mtdparts environment variable
+ but better use the MTD stack and the 'mtd' command instead.
