Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/3] Update mtd use of symbol_(get|put)

From: Trent Piepho <xyzzy@...akeasy.org>

Make the mtd sub-system work with changes to __symbol_get().  mtd calls
__symbol_get() directly, rather than through the symbol_get() macro
because it uses a string it created with sprintf to specify the symbol
to
attach to.  It needs to be updated to supply THIS_MODULE as the user
parameter added to __symbol_get().
