Subject: [PATCH] mtd: unify mtd partition/device registration
Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2008 18:38:53 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1226533133-7405-1-git-send-email-vapier@gentoo.org> (raw)

Rather than having every map/mtd driver doing the same sequence of
registering partitions and/or devices, implement common parse_mtd().
