+ linux-mtd FYI, I addressed a similar patch over here:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2014-September/055563.html I'm pretty sure this patch is wrong, and the semantic match is incorrect (or at least, it has false positives). Just because devm_* is used in some part of the driver doesn't mean that all allocations should be. Admittedly, this driver is not the best written (this patch drew my attention to at least one bug), but I just wanted to let y'all know.
