I was trying to do power cut emulation testing with mtdram, and I see
there are some issues which do not seem to exist on NAND. But they are
different to yours. I remember I saw these -ENOSPC issues in the past,
but they were very difficult to reproduce.

I will try to investigate why power-cut emulation testing fails on
mtdram, but I have limited amount of time and I do not know when I'll be
able to do this.
