I just notice that in my old 2.4.20 kernel tree I have a

	* $Id: cfi_cmdset_0002.c,v 1.67 2003/04/15 22:32:13 thayne Exp $

and in a _new_ 2.4.25 tree I have

	 * $Id: cfi_cmdset_0002.c,v 1.62 2003/01/24 23:30:13 dwmw2 Exp $

How could that be !?!?

Is the MTD code not pushed up into the main kernel sources???
