One substantial difference is the absence of the lookup() inode operation
in <= 2.4.19 kernels.

AFAIK, there are no major problems porting recent MTD trees to "not very 
ancient" 2.4 kernels, where "not very ancient" is, I presume, > 2.4.20. 
But I didn't try (thank goodness) :-) People just don't want to deal 
with old stuff anymore.
