[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 24/27] cmd: mtdparts: remove useless 'mtdparts=' prefix

[Miquel Raynal]

All U-Boot users must define the mtdparts environment variable with:
setenv mtdparts mtdparts=...

This is a pure software limitation and is a complete non-sense. Remove
this limitation but keep the backward compatibility.
