mtd: phram: Repair multiple instances support
Commit b2a2a84d35e0f42ad26e326ec4258f6a8b8eecbe (mtd: phram: dot not crash when built-in and passing boot param) claims to be "based on Ville Herva's similar patch to block2mtd" (c4e7fb313771ac03dfdca26d30e8b721731c562b), but it has missed the crucial point of the original path: all these "if(n)def MODULE". It has broken the possibility to create several phram instances when phram is compiled as module. The possibility to add instances via /sys writes to /sys/module/phram/parameters/phram was also broken with mentioned patch. Proposed patch takes the idea of original block2mtd patch to its full extent. Assumption "This function is always called before 'init_phram()'" was also incorrect, so removed the comment. This patch effectively reverts also b11ec57fc6e6d4882ef01a0c09a1dde58f50492e (mtd: phram: fix section mismatch for phram_setup).
