I'm curious, why did you not consider reads in your proposal? I think
in general as long as you use a device the LED should blink. While
you're performing a read you cannot do anything else with the chip so I
would definitely consider the read path as well.
Also, I would expect the blinking to continue when the device is
accessed, no matter who is asking for it. So for instance when I load
my kernel into RAM, I believe it should blink. Hence, why not
considering the mtd layer rather than the command .c file?
