git://git.infradead.org/l2-mtd.git

Sorry, apparently l2-mtd.git is not in MAINTAINERS. It historically has
been a kind of queue for the official repo (linux-mtd.git), especially
when work was split up between two people. I handle most of it now.

I guess it should be in MAINTAINERS, though, since most people will need
to base patches on it. I just sent a patch to add it.

I enabled extra warnings. I think you can get most of those with 'make
W=1'.

Just send a new patch, please.
