mtd: Make sure the device supports erase operations in mtd_erase()
Some devices do not implement ->_erase() or have an invalid ->erasesize value. In this case, mtd_erase() should return -ENOTSUPP. Note that the test is not done on the MTD_NO_ERASE flag because this flag means 'erasing a block before writing to it is unnecessary', not 'the erase operation is not supported'. Actually, some drivers are setting the MTD_NO_ERASE flag but still implementing the ->_erase() hook and setting a valid ->erasesize value.
