How about s/at some point/now/ ? I can send a separate patch. It also
seems like these should just get linked into the 'mtd' module (when
CONFIG_OF=y) instead of having a tiny module for just a few functions.

Why did files like this get placed here anyway? Is there a reason that
there are things like of_net and of_pci here too?
