mtdswap: kill strict error handling option
As Artem Bityutskiy suggested: this option is controversial, as we do not really have any prove it is useful. And it is too much to have it as a config parameter. So, better kill it and let the real mtdswap users decide whether it is needed or not. Signed-off-by: Yang Ruirui<ruirui.r.yang@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
