Linus Walleij 1fca1f6abb mtd: afs: simplify partition parsing
This simplifies the AFS partition parsing to make the code
more straight-forward and readable.

Before this patch the code tried to calculate the memory required
to hold the partition info by adding up the sizes of the strings
of the names and adding that to a single memory allocation,
indexing the name pointers in front of the struct mtd_partition
allocations so all allocated data was in one chunk.

This is overzealous. Instead use kstrdup and bail out,
kfree():ing the memory used for MTD partitions and names alike
on the errorpath.

In the process rename the index variable from idx to i.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
