Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mtd: remove unneeded initializer in mtd_ooblayout_count_bytes()

There is no need to initialize oobregion since it will be filled by
the iterator.

This function is called with mtd_ooblayout_free or mtd_ooblayout_ecc
for the iterator; both of them calls memset() to clear the oobregion.
