[PATCH] Remove blkmtd
Remove the blkmtd driver.
- An alternative exists (block2mtd) that hasn't had bug report for > 1 year.
- Most embedded people tend to use ancient kernels with custom patches from
mtd cvs and elsewhere, so the 1 year warning period neither helps nor hurts
them too much.
- It's in the way of klibc. The problems caused by pulling blkmtd support
are fairly low, while the problems caused by delaying klibc can be fairly
substantial. At best, this would be a severe burden on hpa's time.
