It has broken the possibility to create several phram instances when phram is compiled as module. The possibility to add instances via /sys writes to /sys/module/phram/parameters/phram was also broken with mentioned patch. Proposed patch takes the idea of original block2mtd patch to its full extent. Assumption "This function is always called before 'init_phram()'" was also incorrect, so removed the comment.

mtd: harmonize mtd_point interface implementation 2012-03-26T23:32:11+00:00 Artem Bityutskiy artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com 2012-02-08T13:13:26+00:00 0dd5235f51fb0eb0b8cef3fed35be39b8a06d7bd Some MTD drivers return -EINVAL if the 'phys' parameter is not NULL, trying to convey that they cannot return the physical address. However, this is not very logical because they still can return the virtual address ('virt'). But some drivers (lpddr) just ignore the 'phys' parameter instead, which is a more logical thing to do. Let's harmonize this and: 1. Always initialize 'virt' and 'phys' to 'NULL' in 'mtd_point()'. 2. Do not return an error if the physical address cannot be found. So as a result, all drivers will set 'phys' to 'NULL' if it is not supported. None of the 'mtd_point()' users use 'phys' anyway, so this should not break anything. I guess we could also just delete this parameter later. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
