the kernel headers installed in your host system are out of date.  looking at 
the kernel history, it seems they're *very* old as MTD_DATAFLASH was added in 
Feb 2005.  i could understand making concessions for semi-recent additions, 
but not for something this old.

not a bug in u-boot ... update your distro's kernel headers.
