I haven't had time to look at that yet, thanks for re-sending them!

If you already did testing using those, then I think we would all appreciate
that you post the results.

In particular, we're interested in **seeing** this change parses correctly
all possible combinations of partitions configured by the 'mtdparts' parameter.

This is a big change you're proposing and we need to be sure there won't
be any users experiencing any unexpected result while using 'mtdparts'.
