What's the status of this series? Is the rest of this platform support
going in via other trees yet? I have a few trivial comments, but this
driver mostly looks good as-is.

You'll need a (trivial) DT binding doc in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/ to go with this. You might also need
to split the arch/arm/boot/dts/ stuff out to a separate patch, so the
MTD driver can go in the MTD tree separate from the ARM tree bits.

Do you need this? It looks unused.

You don't need the empty call-back. See mtd_sync(), which only calls the
_sync callback if it's filled in.

Please drop 'ofoldpart'; it is obsolte. And do you really want
'RedBoot'?

Move these next to the devm_ioremap_resource(), and then remove the
if (!r1 || !r2)
checks, since devm_ioremap_resource() does them for you. (See
lib/devres.c.)

You don't need the print message. devm_ioremap_resource() handles this
for you.

Ditto.

If you don't need the other partition types (commented above), then you
can just use the defaults (drivers/mtd/mtdpart.c,
default_mtd_part_types) by dropping your 'probe_types' and making the
second argument NULL.

How about "failed to register MTD"?

Please check the return code.

I don't think you need to do this any more. The driver core takes care
of this on removal.

(So just: return mtd_device_unregister(&info->mtd);)

With that, you have my:

Thanks for response, the rest of the series is stuck on a DMA driver
with no development activity. I'll fix the comments, separate ARM staff
and refile the patch.
