mtd: don't WARN about overloaded users of mtd->reboot_notifier.notifier_call

Browse Source 
There are multiple types of users of mtd->reboot_notifier.notifier_call:

(1) A while back, the cfi_cmdset_000{1,2} chip drivers implemented a
reboot notifier to (on a best effort basis) attempt to reset their flash
chips before rebooting.

(2) More recently, we implemented a common _reboot() hook so that MTD
drivers (particularly, NAND flash) could better halt I/O operations
without having to reimplement the same notifier boilerplate.

Currently, the WARN_ONCE() condition here was written to handle (2), but
at the same time it mis-diagnosed case (1) as an already-registered MTD.
Let's fix this by having the WARN_ONCE() condition better imitate the
condition that immediately follows it. (Wow, I don't know how I missed
that one.)

(Side note: Unfortunately, we can't yet combine the reboot notifier code
for (1) and (2) with a patch like [1], because some users of (1) also
use mtdconcat, and so the mtd_info struct from cfi_cmdset_000{1,2} won't
actually get registered with mtdcore, and therefore their reboot
notifier won't get registered.)
