I'm working on a revamp of the MTD core which would start exposing
attributes by sysfs, which would mean a lot of the ioctl problems go
away. I suspect it would be OK simply not to export the whole OOB, until
that's done.

I posted other code which can export things in sysfs already -- perhaps
we don't need to wait until the core rewrite is done?
