I thought we'd changed the types so that conversions weren't necessary?

You mean:
   map->size ==> map->map_size
   mtd->size ==> mtd->mtd_size

Almost all variables of type 'struct mtd_info *' have 'mtd' at the end of 
the name, and almost all variable of type 'struct map_info *' have 'map' at 
the end of the name, don't they?
