And there's a regression in mtd/maps/phsymap.c which should
be resolved before 2.6.25 ships ... on some platforms it
newly likes to oops on reboot.

I don't have a URL for that patch, but ISTR it's been
posted both to LKML and to linux-MTD.  (That doesn't
include less-good versions I've seen too.)  If needed,
I can dig it up, but I've been thinking this should have
a signoff from MTD folk.
