kernel: generic: 5.4: fix mtd concat panic on read/write functions

Commit 2431c4f5b46c32c4ac495456b1ef4ce59c0bb85d ("mtd: Implement
mtd_{read,write}() as wrappers around mtd_{read,write}_oob()") for kernel 5.4
restrict mtd devices to register only one type of read/write functions
(either generic or OOB).

mtd concat does not follow above rule and defines both methods at the same
time, causing this type of device to be rejected by kernel. For routers that
use mtd concat for root UBI volume that means kernel panic and boot loop with
following error:

This patch makes mtd concat to follow new mtd requirements by registering
either normal or oob versions of read/write functions, but not both at the
same time. OOB is used only when underlying mtd devices provide such
functionality (like NAND chips) - otherwise generic methods are used.

Tested successfully on Netgear WNDR4300.
