int blk, result, chunk, c, deleted;

etc, will save some lines.

Maybe worth breaking parts of the body of this loop into sub functions
to reduce the indentation level and make everything a bit more readable.

This looks like it could be simplified a little by replacing
'alloc_failed = 1' statement with a 'goto alloc_failed'. It means that
you don't have keep checking to make sure in is valid.

You don't need the assignment to NULL here.

if (!fixer)? Do we want a warning?

Fixers could also use struct list_head rather than their own (albeit
simple) linked list implementation.

Again, using a goto to get out of the loop here will simplify the if
statements below.

You can drop this comment, the yaffs_trace has the same information.

Similar reductions are possible for other functions. Also, can we
actually end up here if dev->param.is_yaffs2 is not set?

Just initialise cp = {0} and drop the memset.

Don't need parens around head. Can also do:

	cp.head = !!head;

just cp.head == head should suffice.

Just return ok. You shouldn't need ? 1 : 0 everywhere.
