[PATCH v2] Check name property to determine partition nodes.

[PATCH v2] Check name property to determine partition nodes.

[Benjamin Krill]

SLOF has a further node which could not be evaluate
by the current routine. The current routine returns
because the node hasn't the required reg property. As
fix this patch adds a check to determine the partition
child nodes. If the node is not an partition the number
of total partitions will be decreased and loop continue
with the next nodes.

Somebody on the MTD list is taking that ? David ? Or should I merge it
via powerpc ?

Cheers,

Could somebody merge it for the next release?
