So to make mtdparts_default runtime configurable, we need to fill it before
relocating env, but after mtd devices get probed, see curent hack in code.
Do we want some generic way of producing board specific mtdpart defaults?
Patch bellow gives some clue how it could work, but implementation is
not nice. Would something like that in principle acceptable (either weak
function or config option)?
Btw, current mtdparts init code is broken for non-relocated env as it assigns
parts name pointer to tmp_parts, so later check for that pointer being null
(env variable not found) does not really check for that variable. I'll send
separate patch for that.
Best regards,
ladis
PS: patch is based on the top of ubi spl series...
