If that's going to be possible, shouldn't it work for any MTD device? And the lack of protection bothers me a bit more here than with EEPROMs and NVRAM, since it seems kind of easy to clobber UBI (or JFFS2 etc) data. Maybe there should be a way to make jus a specific partition available this way? > This patch also changes the initialization sequence of the > drivers by moving mtd and spi ahead of net in drivers/Makefile > thereby enabling da850/omap-l138 ethernet driver to read the > MAC address while booting. Worth a separate patch. That much raises no flags for me.
