mtd: aspeed-smc: improve probe resilience

The aspeed-smc can have multiple SPI devices attached to it in the
device tree.  If one of the devices is missing or failing the entire
probe will fail and all MTD devices under the controller will be
removed.  On OpenBMC this results in a kernel panic due to missing
rootfs:

Many BMC designs have two flash chips so that they can handle a hardware
failure of one of them.  If one chip failed, it doesn't do any good to
have redundancy if they all get removed anyhow.

Improve the resilience of the probe function to handle one of the
children being missing or failed.  Only in the case where all children
fail to probe should the controller be failed out.
