[RFC/PATCH] mtd: Hide CONFIG_MTD_BLKDEVS from the menu

Make this option a hidden one and get a cleaner configuration.
This option just selects a common infrastructure for MTD-based devices
to expose a block interface. There is no point in allowing a separate
enable/disable.

Any comments on this one?

It looks OK to me. I might add a comment above MTD_BLKDEVS like I see in
some other similar Kconfig not-user-selectable options:

#
# MTD block device support is select'ed if needed

Fully agreed.
