mtd: block2mtd: don't call early_lookup_bdev after the system is running
early_lookup_bdev is supposed to only be called from the early boot
code, but mdtblock_early_get_bdev is called as a general fallback when
lookup_bdev fails, which is problematic because early_lookup_bdev
bypasses all normal path based permission checking, and might cause
problems with certain container environments renaming devices.
Switch to only call early_lookup_bdev when block2mtd is built-in and the
system state in not running yet.
Note that this strictly speaking changes the kernel ABI as the PARTUUID=
and PARTLABEL= style syntax is now not available during a running
systems. They never were intended for that, but this breaks things
we'll have to figure out a way to make them available again. But if
avoidable in any way I'd rather avoid that.
