The actual issue was a bit different -- refer commit bec494775600b1cd in
latest -git (patch included below).
David, it looks like .22 had this problem as well. If we care enough, you
could forward this on to -stable (cc'ed, just in case).

[MTD] Makefile fix for mtdsuper
We want drivers/mtd/{mtdcore, mtdsuper, mtdpart}.c to be built and linked
into the same mtd.ko module. Fix the Makefile to ensure this, and remove
duplicate MODULE_ declarations in mtdpart.c, as mtdcore.c already has them.
