disk: default to HW partition 0 if not specified
Currently, get_device()/get_dev_hwpart() for MMC devices does not select an explicit HW partition unless the user explicitly requests one, i.e. by requesting device "mmc 0.0" rather than just "mmc 0". I think it makes more sense if the default is to select HW partition 0 (main data area) if the user didn't request a specific partition. Otherwise, the following happens, which feels wrong: Select HW partition 1 (boot0): mmc dev 0 1 Attempts to access SW partition 1 on HW partition 1 (boot0), rather than SW partition 1 on HW partition 0 (main data area): ls mmc 0:1 / With this patch, the second command above re-selects the main data area. Many device types don't support HW partitions at all, so if HW partition 0 is selected (either explicitly or as the default) and there's no select_hwpart function, we simply skip attempting to select a HW partition. Some MMC devices (i.e. SD cards) don't support HW partitions. However, this patch still works, since mmc_start_init() sets the current partition number to 0, and mmc_select_hwpart() succeeds if the requested partition is already selected.
