[U-Boot] [PATCH] mtd: uboot: Fix hanging during mtd list command

Some boards using simple NAND drivers (like omap3_logic) hang when executing the new 'mtd list' command. This patch enhances the checks for conditions that would preclude mtd_probe_devices() from operating.
Fixes: 5db66b3aee6f ("cmd: mtd: add 'mtd' command")

We should first remove all partitions before bailing out, hence my proposal to place this check after the 'while (remaining_partitions)' loop.

Sorry. Gmail filtered it in a way that it was hard to tell where it went. I'll submit a V2 fix in just a moment.
