      mtd: nand: pxa3xx: Remove hardcoded mtd name
    
      There's no advantage in using a hardcoded name for the mtd device.
      Instead use the provided by the platform_device.
    
    The MTD name was changed to use the one provided by the platform_device.
    However, this can be problematic as some users want to set partitions
    using the kernel parameter 'mtdparts', where the name is needed.
    
    Therefore, to avoid regressions in users relying in 'mtdparts' we revert
    the change and use the previous one 'pxa3xx_nand-0'.
    
    While at it, let's put a big comment and prevent this change from happening
    ever again.
