Solves ticket #14356 <https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/14356>

Without this patch, UART output will show only 4 partitions:
  [    0.740000] 4 cmdlinepart partitions found on MTD device spi0.0
  [    0.750000] Creating 4 MTD partitions on "spi0.0":
  [    0.750000] 0x000000000000-0x000000050000 : "u-boot"
