Hi Stefano,

The "mtdparts add" command wrote through a NULL pointer - on many systems this went unnoticed (PowerPC has writable RAM there, some ARM systems have ROM where a write has no effect), but on arm1136 (i.MX31) it crashed the system.
Add appropriate checks.
Hi Wolfgang,
I have already sent a patch fixing this issue,
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2010-April/070347.html
However, I preferred (easier way) to fix the calling function as the device_parse(). I do not know if Stefan has already merged it.
No, I haven't merged it. Since I was not sure if this has to go through one of my git repositories. Both cfi-flash and ubi don't really include this mtdparts stuff.
Wolfgang, I suggest you apply your preferred version directly.
Thanks.
Cheers, Stefan
