Update of /home/cvs/mtd/kernel
In directory infradead.org:/tmp/cvs-serv12344/kernel

Modified Files:
	nftl.c 
Log Message:
Patches from Peter Kundrat to fix my misunderstanding of precisely what
MediaHdr->FirstPhysicalEUN is supposed to point to.

The spec says "The Physical Erase Unit Number where the NFTL partition
begins. If the partition starts at physical address zero (0), this
value is zero (0)."

I made it point to the first actual data unit. It seems it should actually
point to the unit in which the Media Header resides.

This may well fix the corruption problems which people were seeing - and
which I couldn't reproduce because I was using partitions formatted with
my own nftl_format program.
