Fwiw, I've found and fixed the bug. Patch, along with the removal of your name, is on the way to Linus. If you insist, I can remove the driver completely and rewrite it from scratch, with none of your code remaining. Tell me to do so and I will. BTW: Thank you for the bug report. I've noticed this earlier but suspected jffs2 or my cowlink work to be at fault. Despite our ability to get mad at each other, both your initial code and the bug report were very helpful (and worth any grief on my side).
