My understanding was, that the patch in this form, i.e., not using 
nand_spl should _not_ be accepted in the mainline and you sent it to the 
list just as a FYI for users willing to use your solution. That's why I 
suggested not to mark it as a "PATCH." I haven't followed discussions of 
your previous submissions of this patch very closely, so I might have 
missed something, but I would agree with Scott and wait until a nand_spl 
version of this patch appears, and _not_ apply this patch in its present 
form.

Thanks
