blkmtd wasn't working for me at all, oopsing because it tried to 
dereference a NULL pointer. This patch fixes it:

        dev->mtd_info.size = dev->blkdev->bd_inode->i_size & PAGE_MASK;
 
        /* Setup the MTD structure */


This patch makes it work for me. Does this look right? If so, how do I 
go about getting it committed?
