mtd: physmap_of: Add read-only fallback
Previously, when probing a CFI chip which was write-protected at the hardware level, the probe would fail due to the fact it could not put the chip into QUERY mode. This would result in no MTD devices being created. Add a fallback to probe using the map_rom driver if the user-selected probe fails.
