> Almost every model has different factory partitioning: add to this the

Please use kerneldoc headers instead of putting doc in the struct def:


/**
 * struct mtd_logical - SharpFTL Logical Table
 * @size: size of the handled partition
 * @index: mtd->index
 * ...
 *
 * <Short description here>
 */
> +struct mtd_logical {
> +	u32 size;		/* size of the handled partition */
> +	int index;		/* mtd->index */

index and size are not used in the code, you can drop them.

> +	u_int phymax;		/* physical blocks */

I'm pretty sure you don't need phymax in this struct. Just declare a
local phymax variable in sharpsl_nand_init_logical().

Unneeded blank line here (that's not the only place in the code).

Just pass a simple pointer to a struct mtd_logical, this way you don't
have to allocate it here.

Add a blank line here.

I think Brian already suggested to use a shorter name here.

Duh, this is unreadable. I thought you were not checking the 2nd return
value before realizing there was an '||' operator between those 2 calls.

Please split like that:

	err = sharpsl_nand_read_laddr(master,
				      PARAM_BLOCK_PARTITIONINFO1,
				      sizeof(buf1), (u_char *)&buf1,
				      sharpsl_mtd_logical);
	if (err)
		...

	err = sharpsl_nand_read_laddr(master,
				      PARAM_BLOCK_PARTITIONINFO2,
				      sizeof(buf2), (u_char *)&buf2,
				      sharpsl_mtd_logical);
	if (err)
		...

Hm, so if there's a powercut during the part-table update you can't
boot anymore? I thought having 2 partition tables was here to handle
this case.

You seem to leak sharpsl_mtd_logical here (the object is not freed
before leaving the function).
