Allow drivers that use the nvmem API to read data stored on MTD devices.
For this the mtd devices are registered as read-only NVMEM providers.
On OF systems only devices that have the 'nvmem-provider' property
are registered, on non-OF system all MTD devices are registered.

Changelog:
v2: * Moved to the MTD core instead of using notifiers
* Fixed the Kconfig description
v3: * Rebased on current kernel
* Moved the code to mtdcore.c and removed the conditional
compilation as suggested by Boris Brezillon
* Fixed my name in From and Signed-off-by
* Only allow root to read from the nvmem sysfs interface
