If we don't do that, partitions might still be exposed while the

Missing inline here.

I'll send a v2 fixing those 2 bugs.

Thanks!

I tried your patchset, with them "ubi part ubi" does now work, also
after a "sf probe" ...

There is one problem, see log [1].

If you have an ubi partition attached (In my example on the NAND),
and issue "sf probe", the following "mtd list" shows not anymore
the SPI NOR MTD partitions. (It prints an error message
"Partition "ubi" already in use, aborting")

If I detach UBI from the NAND MTD partition, the MTD Partitions on
the SPI NOR are again found after a "sf probe" before "mtd list" [2]

I sent you a new version of this patchset that should address your
issue. Note that updating parts on a device that is being used is still
forbidden, but at least it does not block updates on other devices.

Yes.

Oh, and I keep thinking the spi-flash code is broken, and none of this
should happen if the spi-nor MTD devs were staying around instead of
being unregistered/registered every time sf probe is called. But I
don't intend to fix it now, as the proper solution is probably to port
the spi-nor layer we have in Linux to u-boot.

I try your patches soon, but give me some time.

Thanks!

bye,
Heiko
