No, that whole crap needs to go.  FS code has no business poking into fs
internal structures.  BTW, this whole setup is really, really gross,
it's mtd map driver calling arch code to get base + size for mapping,
poking into fs internal structures.  I really wonder what people have
been smoking to come up with crap like that.

We should just leave it uncompilable as a sign for future generations
not to such stupid stuff.
