Maybe you don't loose any data, but you basically break all existing
jffs2 users, right? Is this page address only useful on your rk SoC or
are all the SoCs using the same logic?

I think it would be best to flag where this is required and avoid a
massive incompatible change like this one (and the previous one). BTW,
any reason not to merge the two first patches? It seems like the series
would not be bisectable between the two first commits.

Patches 4 and 5 look good as they are not directly related, I'll queue
them, you can avoid re-sending them.
