Dear Ben Gardiner,

This patch series is based on the idea of Harald Welte laforge@gnumonks.org and the comments of Wolfgang Denk wd@denx.de [1]. I started with Harald's original patch and migrated it to a new mtdparts sub-command and added an interface to the new functionality via a 'mtdparts add' variant.
I tried to keep it at the level of the mtd subsystem. Whereas the dynparts patch was limited to NAND flashes, I believe this patch will work on any mtd device that can report bad blocks.
Has this been tested on NOR flash devices, too?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
