[POWERPC] Update MTD OF documentation
This updates the Documentation/powerpc part of the MTD OF implementation with the new field probe-type. Its support has already been implemented in MTD part (drivers/mtd/maps/physmap_of.c). Signed-off-by: Vitaly Wool <vwool@ru.mvista.com> Acked-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
