I would be perfectly happy if the mtd driver reported a warning when the requested erase size is not an exact multiple of the block size, and allow the whole block erase to proceed. Then my patch would make sense.
That's what the mtd-2.6.22.1 branch in the NAND repository does. I think it should reject such requests, though.
I don´t like that behavior. Let´s say that I want to program a new binary application of 2.8MB. I want to be able to simply erase 2.8MB, without having to do fancy math computations on my calculator based on the block size :)
