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.
Can we have a configuration that is neutral to the memory footprint for such boards that don't want to use any of the new features? It seems the patches always add ~ 200 bytes to the code size (on PowerPC).
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
