mtd: Make sure mtd->erasesize is valid even if the partition is of size 0
commit ad4635153034c20c6f6e211e2ed3fd38b658649a upstream. Commit 33f45c44d68b ("mtd: Do not allow MTD devices with inconsistent erase properties") introduced a check to make sure ->erasesize and ->_erase values are consistent with the MTD_NO_ERASE flag. This patch did not take the 0 bytes partition case into account which can happen when the defined partition is outside the flash device memory range. Fix that by setting the partition erasesize to the parent erasesize.
