PATCH 1/1 ubi: reset mtd_devs when ubi part fail

if "ubi part" fails, reset also mtd_devs to 0, as further "ubi part" would use wrong mtd_devs.

This issue was posted from Andrew here:

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/410507/
Patchwork [U-Boot] ubi: reset relevant globals in ubi_exit()

Could this produce with current mainline also now, and fixed it in ubi_init() in the error path too.

Andrew: could you test this patch?
(Should I add your Signed-off-by ?)
